I'm sorry, but why did I just pay $40 for early boarding so 7 rows of people could board before

0 through passengers. The complaint is about the obvious false disabilities. Entire families boarding first because of a 70 yr old woman that walks away fine after the flight. Unfortunately I just now consider southwest to not have acceptable boarding.

You paid for a Business Select fare, and also Upgraded Boarding?

Looks like Jetway Jesus was there to meet her.  The miracle flights seem to be especially plentiful with SWA.

This is the problem I'm describing. I was position A-1 and boarded after like 40 people. Unacceptable.

[MrSavage]

I was position A-1. All these rows were still full before I boarded.

But priority boarding does.  Thats the $40 fee.

Early bird doesn't guarantee you A1-15 seating. Heck, it doesn't even guarantee you A seating. And therein lies the rub. You can pay for early boarding if you want, I have in the past, but there are no guarantees you will get A boarding.
