When I flew to MYK from A10 a few weeks ago, we (Group 1) were very proudly called forward first and we boarded the first bus, followed by Group 2 & 3. They then filled up the rest of the bus with a few other people which pushed Group 1, who boarded first, right down the back/front of the bus. I then got off almost last, which sort of defeats the object of Group 1 priority boarding.

So, yes, for me, crammed on. They had two busses for the entire flight, which was full. As it was MYK in June though, it was infant-free.
