I've used the Breezeway several times and I love it. I typically like to hang out in the CRC until about 20 or 25 minutes before departure - downloading email, charging my laptop, etc. With the Breezeway, my delay getting on the plane is lessened just that much. After experiencing it several times in ATL earlier this year, they've now have it in Tampa, where I used it about 3 weeks ago.

The first time I used it in ATL, I did make the mistake of using it to inadvertently butt in front of other elites. I walked up to the gate about 15 to 20 minutes before scheduled departure, and went straight to the Breezeway line, not realizing that there was a slight delay and they were still boarding zones 2 and 3. Since then I've been a little more careful about this. This is the one drawback to the way DL is rolling out this service. Since they (often) don't use the Breezeway during the first 3 zones, a newly-arriving elite / FC pax can make this mistake.
