Sorry but I have to say it.
No such word as deboarded. Try deplaned or egress but no such word.
I don't care if the F/As used it, they are still wrong.

To the OP, I don't know the circumstances for the pax deboarding but I will address the English use-age, "deboarding" issue! (Just my opinion, naturally!)
To quote http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/deboard, describes deboarding as a present participle of deboard. Yes, I know it probably is screeching chalk on the proverbial reusable writing surface-board (C-Board) to all of us formal English majors, but heh, one must be flexible as the times & language are always changing!

offloading
I was on a flight from MIA to EWR a couple of weeks ago, where a passenger was offloaded (with his luggage, but not with his wife and kid, who remained in their seats and continued to their destination without him) for being argumentative - to put it mildly - with a FA over his oversized bag which would not fit in the bin.
And I mean offloaded. Not: deplaned, deboarded, unboarded, removed, forcibly egressed, asked to leave, etc. Offloaded.
And this was AFTER a change of planes, because the original one had been "over-fueled." A first, for me at least.
That was a heck of a tuesday morning. Couldn't even listen to CH 9 to catch any cockpit chatter about all the chaos at the gate(s) .. but then again, there was enough entertainment without it.
