Oh, that's how it works!!! You remain outside while the GA goes on the plane looking for #1 on the list, and picks a FA to move up because #1 & #2 are nowhere to be found, then shutting the door so that the plane can leave on time..

Or is it that being a 1K allows a guy to have someone take his carry-on stuff and put it in the overhead for him while he remains in the "Wait Here-Just In Case Special Line" located 13.5' north of the group #1 boarding chute.

Never knew that there was some sort of a prearranged deal to be made. That is soooooo cool!!!

Btw, how many people are allowed to go up to the podium and get the secret subliminal "Hang Loose" agreement???
