This may also be a DYKWIA on my part, but to be fair, I was traveling with my in-laws who are one of those who forget everything they know once they enter the airport.
In the end of Feb this year we were coming back from SJO to LAX and the LAX>SLC flight was a little delayed. I left the wife, infant and in laws at the gate while I “got some better info from the sky club” (a beverage). I got word we were about to board and met the group and bagged up the stroller and walked up just in time to see people boarding. I walk over to the dozen or so people standing in the priority lane and ask the finely dressed gentleman, “are you guys boarding?” He looks at me in my hoodie and shorts carrying a stroller bag and states, “they are boarding premium.” I looked at him for a half of a second to see if he made a move toward the gate and then I replied, “thank you”, and just pushed my way through everyone without another word.
I was tired and irratated, not my best moment but come one. I can see you are a group of regular flyers and you are doing what we all complain about. I hope they assumed I missed the pre boarding and didn’t know what I was doing. If I was not completely drained I may have said, “ wow! The nice lady put us in 2a b c and d and this is our first time flying!”

​​​​​​congrats to all the nosey busybodies, airlines are finally cracking down on these lawless reprobates

As long as I get my PDB, I can tolerate allowing those with terminal cancer and bodily disfigurement to board early. It’s when I don’t get my Mimosa that things turn ugly and the FAA needs to step in to curtail the insanity.
