. You'd think on occasion they would stay in the rear of plane until boarding is complete before taking their seat. Or are they afraid they'll lose their seat?
no, they like to eyeball pax as they get on, especially if there is a passenger of interest that doesnt warrant being on the no-fly lists.
I have never been on a BF flight but I imagine at boarding the folks go left for BF and right for the "other" classes so it probably doesnt make much difference for them to get on early.
I flew next to one on the way to ELP last week. I commented how regular flyers say they often know who they are. She said those are the ones they like pax to know are there. Then she said dont think the one you see is alone. On larger aircraft with two FAM upfront there is one and usually two or more in the back.
I have to say I didnt have to try hard to get her talking - their OPerational SECurity could use improving........
