To hold up people in Coach implies that they think there's a "logjam" at the door.
Truly moronic of any airline or FA that chooses to do this, imo.
I'll stick with moronic, then. I absolutely hate it when airlines don't hold back Y, particularly if it is an international arrival - in which case it means a longer wait at immigration. It also bugs me when parking on a hard stand and they commingle the classes in the coach...meaning a long, long wait. Cost issues aside, I'm always impressed when there's a coach for F, one for J, and two or more for Y. Too many airlines consider the "first" experience to be over as soon as the seatbelt sign is turned off. The higher quality ones keep up the service right up to the point you exit the airport.
