and then he explained that because there were fifty passengers on this flight with Sky Priority on their boarding passes, that he would be calling the Sky Priority boarders in order of their elite status: Sky Platinum, Sky Gold, etc.
I had bought up this trip, so I wasn't there to see how that worked out. But boarding didn't seem any faster, nor the peeps any happier as they were filing on.
Has anyone else seen Delta boarding Sky by elite status?

I would not be happy. If I paid for C+ and SKY boarding, why should I have to wait within the SKY boarding zone for others to board first just because there are a lot of people in SKY? At best, I would send in a complaint via the website if a GA stopped me from boarding during this theoretical SKY Platinum zone.
