OK, please specify the airlines that
don't do this. Gramma Ethel may have been either elite or "passenger needing assistance". Otherwise, all the majors that I fly board the rear passengers and passengers in window seats first, then middle sections and front middle seats, then front section.
One problem is that "elite and pax needing assistance" is sometime 70% of the plane.
Unless you are flying Southwest with their "cattle call" boarding method. Is there another airline that follws that pattern?
