I have to say that I have not been impressed with the chaos at boarding, the service received, the horrible seats. I wish that I could have purchased a coach ticket and pocketed the difference (but the company doesn't let me do that). I would never have paid for it myself.
Is there boarding chaos even with a jet bridge? I have found that when you have to take a bus out to the plane (very common in Europe, very rare in the US), the boarding protocol seems to fall apart.
