Please allow me to stand on my soapbox for just one moment. My view is it is rude to potentially hold up 150 people because you have it timed to the moment, so you dont have to be held up yourself. Anyone who travels on AS at all knows they try to board and close the door early to make an on time departure.

I feel better now and I return the thread back to the topic at hand.
