i travelled Monday 19th Dec which is de facto start of xmas holidays week.

outcome of early-boarding calls was for passengers with children boarding first... now whilst I am happy to wait on family with todles needing to be carried....

it seemed this Monday so very many family groups of .. 2x Adults + upto 3 kids, often no kids under 10 ! Half the economy passengers seemed to have blocked the prority queue before us elites/J passengers were invited to start boarding.

the early-boarding of parents with children really needs limiting to some young age, and not just during holiday travel peaks.
