I would be surprised to see a plane door shut at the end of a jetway without a GA knowing it was closed. I supposed if I went down the jetway and saw the plane door shut, I'd bang on the door to so they could let me in

Over here (AA and Eagle) the GA has to hand paperwork to the FA or we have to hand the paperwork to the GA. The door would not be closed without a gate agent knowing
