The reason I ask is, the last time I was in the above scenario in ATL I chose the breezeway. The flight was delayed and 2 pax who were lined up in the front of the general boarding line kept looking at me and shaking their heads like I was a complete idiot. Another time it was similar but not so obvious.
From delta.com:
ATLANTA, Dec. 11, 2007 – Elite customers flying Delta Air Lines (NYSE: DAL) within the United States now have a dedicated lane at each airport gate allowing them priority boarding anytime during the process – not just when their zone is called. The new lanes, called Breezeway, recognize Delta’s best customers for their loyalty and give them priority boarding at airports across Delta’s U.S. network.
But I also have seen it written that the breezeway is only used once they start boarding Zone 4. So, who knows?
