I had this happen from BNA on a long weather delay. The GA started saying "anyone with EliteAccess, platinum, gold...never mind all rows may board at this time." The flight was an RJ so for fifty people it did not matter all that much. Apparently AVP does not even know what elite is. No carpet, no EA boarding, nothing. They do fly exclusively Q200s and I had just been flying for several hours so I did not mind much.
OTOH I had an eight hour delay back in the day when EWR-ABQ existed and at 3 am the GA still made sure to do EA boarding, which was nice. In cases of extreme weather they could do F then have any elites line up on the blue carpet and simultaneous have the rest of the mob lines up on the non-elite line and just close off the regular line until the few elites clear the boarding area.
