I've had two window seats and one middle seat on SDCs lately, although the middle seat may have actually been SB.

Typical Delta shtick with this zone business, SM remains a joke.
I have though found the best-kept-not-so-secret way to maintain super-priority boarding. Keep on having babies. We've had a child 3 or under for the last 10 years and just walk right on, before SkyPriority, first-class, and even god himself. Nothing more satisfying that elbowing right past those snotty GM and above gate lice and seeing their angry looks. Of course the private school tuition will one day do me in, but thats another story. |

Seeing I like to sit in an exit row if I am not upgraded, having a child with me would make that impossible since kids can't sit in an exit row. I also like to be able to sleep on some flights which wouldn't be possible with a small child. |

Did zone SKY disappear recently? My BP didn't have a zone next to it yesterday. I'm usually upgraded on one segment (causing all to read PREM), so I may not have noticed previously.
Also, the last couple of flights I've been on have been boarded: 1.) Pre-Boards 2.) First Class 3.) Zone 1 ... Not sure who is in Zone 1. But I remember the week before that the 3rd group called was Sky Priority and anyone with a Delta Amex card. |

1.) Pre-Boards 2.) First Class 3.) Zone 1 On my FLL-ATL flight this morning, the GA announces pre-boards, then announces, "we now welcome all FC passengers to board... all premiums" in the same sentence. I am in line for FC and the person behind me is sitting in 27C?! Don't even mention the gate lice. |
At FSD this afternoon, the GA announced preboards and then announced that they were boarding the first 4 rows. I at first thought there might have been an equipment change. Nope, 4 rows of FC on a CR9. I found it awfully odd she wouldn't just say first class passengers.

Try boarding the NRT>MNL flight in NRT. It is crazy, well over 2 hours before the flight passengers are lining up. Its a mad house! No one bothers to read the Boarding Zone X signs the GA's go around and hold up, its basically a mad dash to the front of the line.
Anymore I think there is no need for zones 3 and 4. Is there any body actually left to board after they call zone 1?? |
Just checked my printed boarding pass and it's SKY zone for my coach seat.
My iPhone boarding pass lacks any indicator under the word Zone. (although my next flight's iPhone BP indicates PREM as it should) |
