The problem is that dual jetway boarding on the 330 causes chaos for us (your flight attendants). The entry and galleys are much narrower than those on the 744 at door one, and we are hanging coats and preparing your drinks (as well as prepping the Business Elite galley for the flight).

To have boarding through door 1 causes drink spillage and traffic jams as passengers pull their luggage around our trays of prepared drinks, etc. It works on the 744 due to the design of the aircraft, but not on the 330.

Hope that answers your question.
