New priority boarding at BSL

As regulars will know, the fast track line ex BSL typically includes over half the plane.

Yesterday, something new was happening. FT passengers were arranged into one of 3 queues, golds and CE pax, then Silvers, then Bronzes and each queue was boarded in turn.

Not sure if this is a one-off or the start of something being rolled out systemwide, but it is an enhancement that I, for one can see value in.

Great idea
My concern is that this would require effort by the gate staff to do a fair bit of work herding passengers into the right queues.

London City could do with this but there is not enough space at the gates.

See this thread - specifically post #143 for further details on this - good to know it's being enforced at BSL as promised!
