Yes, or the A220/32S parked at 2E for Schengen flights, or the A220/A32S parked in front of 2D for bus gates in 2F.
No idea what will be introduced. Introducing some kind of limo service to plane for ULTIs would be a major move from where they are today, personally I still find it hard to imagine. Maybe it's just a separate compartment on the bus where the doors open earlier so that ULTI can board first.
If at the same time they also bring on a meaningful management of the pre-boarding process, that would be amazing. Today, when entering the lounge, the agents ask you whether you want to board first or last - but then nothing happens with that information. You still have to monitor the screen, and make a choice: leave when "boarding flashes up", and arrive at the gate after boarding has started >> no pre-boarding; or leave before, but risk standing around at the gate for possibly a long time, subject to the vagaries of the ground procedures >> pre-boarding, at the price of having lost possibly useful time in the lounge.
