Enhanced gate "reader" boards and Employee class
I am not a big UA or DL flyer but I have had the opportunity recently to see their respective enhanced gate information displays- The DL one was impressive - though it moved pretty quickly - it constantly showed the Standby List etc - but most importantly it had a running tally of passengers in F and Y that were 1:checked in 2:booked but not checked in 3: seats available - I think I got this right - but I do know one thing - My first thought was - THIS WOULD PREVENT EMPLOYEE CLASS NONSENSE AT UA !!! - Having that much information makes it MUCH harder for an agent to not process a legitmate(key word) upgrade request and put an employee in first - just an observation - kazman
