The cluelessness seems to be booming also when it comes to the boarding. I think folks either are so use to the WN process or want to pretend they are....had four women out of YUL who looked/sounded like they could star on Real Housewives of New Jersey try to avoid during priority access because "they thought that was for anyone with an assigned seat." I see quite a bit more folks with older children trying to avoid before elites. Most of the GAs seem good about correcting.
