I was specifically referencing boarding times (which is one of three separate and almost unrelated complaints brought up in this thread). I still have a hard time buying that the size or selection or order of groups 1 and 2 have any noticeable effect on boarding times. Thus, until
channa's post about UA still not using WilMA, I was never able to reconcile why the current boarding process takes longer than PMUA's. Now it makes sense.
The groups 1 and 2 issues and gate licing issues are separate, and while they do need to be dealt with, as far as boarding times (which affects aircraft utilization and turn times) goes, I suspect fixing SHARES to do WilMA would pretty much take care of that.
I wonder why it took four months and 2,400 posts for someone to point out that UA isn't doing WilMA now...
