Friday 9:45pm HNL-LAX and Saturday 6:20am LAX-LAS. In both, GAs announced how the boarding process would work - then two spectacularly different processes.
HNL called each pre-boarding group, with pauses, and finished with “our one-million miler 1Ks”. I don’t know what it is about HNL, but 2nd time I heard it that way (perhaps same GA). No GS or families w/ sub-2 spawn. 2 military. About 3 1Ks pre-boarded
LAS agent motioned to the assortment of wheel chairs and other time-takers to the podium and then “all other pre-boarders”. Probably 5 time-takers and same number of agile pre-boarders of mixed (and indiscernible) pedigree.
