I’ve read most of this lengthy thread, but I apologize if I missed where it was answered...

As a 1K, if I arrive to the gate a few minutes late, and they’re already boarding BG1, can I bypass the line and walk straight up? (Similar to walking into an empty BG1 lane, prior to these changes). I understand I could still do that if they’ve moved beyond BG1 by using said lane, and I wouldn’t sweat it if there were just a dozen people or so ahead of me in BG1...But I fly a lot of midcons where Ive seen BG1 take up half of the plane (ORD-SFO on 757-300 and 777HD).
