Official SOP (from what I've been told by several DL employees) is that the Breezeway is open at all times and that if the word Breezeway is on your BP, then you should board over the carpet (much as Continental does it).
Should be:
Zone 1 over the Breezeway (gen boarding lane closed)
Zone 2 over the Breezeway (gen boarding lane closed; at this point, all Breezeway pax can board)
Zone 3 over the Gen Boarding Lane (Breezeway open for those in Zones 1/2)
Zone 4 over the Gen Boarding Lane (Breezeway open for those in Zones 1/2)
All passengers in Zones 1-2 are considered Breezeway (as Zone 1 is F, Zone 2 is elites and their companions). For those non-elites in Zone 1 sitting in Row 10 (bulkhead), the Breezeway designator still appears on their BPs.
