I know when I flew on QF recently they have the new boarding group process and the gate scanner beeps if you try and jump your turn. I'd like to see that implemented on UA.

AA is doing the same thing a many airports -- I think it is going system-wide

(O'Hare, 10:35 am, departure gate 52)
We hear a beeping scanner, followed by a PA announcement:

"Would the young man with the black t-shirt carrying the skateboard please retake their position back in line?
Kindly remain there until your group is called and this time, try to refrain from pushing that 85 year old widow with a cane aside.
Also try to not crowd the four contest-winning special needs children in wheelchairs. As well, we would appreciate it if you would now replace the Innuit soapstone sculpture back where you found it by the display cases - it was a gift from Canada after 911.
Lastly, just a friendly reminder that there is a box of Kleenex at your disposal on the counter up front here.
Oh and personal deodorant can be purchased at the nearby shop next to the Jack Astor bar.
Have a wonderful day!"


I am done. the entitled

I normally fly UA and do not really notice much of a problem but maybe that's because I board in group 1.

I'm also hearing impaired and don't understand PA announcements. For me the anxiety of flying is not understanding what is going on.
