For my virgin australia domestic flights in australia, jetways weren't used

people walked out to tarmac, and boarding using front and rear doors using stairs

faster

the safe parts of the tarmac were roped off for passengers (maybe 20feet around wing/engine), so you walked around the wing. there were workers watching for your safety


anything could be done... but tail isn't that nice (as compared to the front)
