I wonder if me being A list, not A+ is part of it. Or if I’m a “lower value” A list member - I usually qualify on flights rather than points, and it takes me almost the whole 12 months to get to the flight threshold. So if the boarding order (which as far as I know is still secret and we’ve never figured it out!) takes spend or flight activity into account I guess it makes sense that I’m further back. At any rate, it’s common for me to board from the A31-60 side of the boarding posts!
