Yesterday, in DFW, I was traveling home from a speaking engagement on a P ticket, confirmed in F (not IDG), mobile BP, and of all the people boarding with F, a GA condescendingly asks *me* if I'm priority. It's annoying. I don't pay for F to be asked if I a) can read; b) understand the concept of boarding by group; c) know the difference between F and Y.
Do I need to wear a sign around my neck that says, "Yes, I am boarding appropriately. I am assigned seat xx"? Is it too much to ask that for my extra $500 that I be treated the same as all the other people boarding with F?
Maybe I am being too sensitive and should expect to be asked every 4 or 5 boardings. How often does this happen to you?
This happened to me recently in DFW. I do not have to dress up for my job but I don't look like a slob either, but I just reply "Yep" and keep walking. Some of the DFW agents seem to think you need to be in a suit to be in First Class.
