Tight as I have ever seen it. Not just for USA flights either, as I saw the same thing done to an AM flight.
Actually, I see this often in foreign airports. I got caught up in one instance a few months ago where I just made the flight, and was stopped on the Jetway. I'm waiting for them as they're ripping apart my Computer Case, while the FA is yelling "hurry! hurry!".
