Great for those who show up late, those who are deaf, those who are listening to their iPods at the gate (that would be me) and those who are just generally confused.
I saw this on a GDIS display at MCO today on CO metal (GDIS looked like the one at ORD but with the CO logo). I don't travel there often so I don't know if this is a new thing or an old thing. The GDIS displayed that the Military was boarding and then showed 1st Class was boarding. I didn't see the rest as I was already boarding.
