If they didnt offer you a refund initially on those tickets, you can demand one via the FAA's order on April 3, 2020. see here: U.S. Department of Transportation Issues Enforcement Notice Clarifying Air Carrier Refund Requirements, Given the Impact of COVID-19 | US Department of Transportation

Ok. FAA was pretty clear that the airline would have to issue refunds, not credits for cancelled flights due to the pandemic. You can write to the FAA or corporate office and complain, citing the clarification rule that came out on April 3, 2020: Enforcement Notice Final April 3 2020_0.pdf (transportation.gov)

Id happily board after the business class passengers. I wouldn't particularly have an issue with it. Southwest does generally allow people with morbid obesity as well to have preboarding because of special seating requirements. Its possible that the airport seating isnt accomodating either...so they are standing the whole time, probably in pain. Did you hear about the guy from ireland that was assigned one cheek to one side of the aisle and the other on the opposite side? Basic Economy blunders. One possibility is to allow those that got a business class ticket to board first, and then people with disabilities immediately after. However, That elderly grandma that cant stand too long and their traveling companions may have a problem boarding if they cant make it through the jetbridge. People with Congestive Heart Failure, Pulmonary Hypertension for example, recent hip replacement, Intractible High Impact Chronic Pain. So while I wouldn't mind waiting, You can't plan for everyone's disability and federal law allows them to board first. Plus, if you could afford it, you would be flying Delta First Class.

Yeah. If anyone with allergic rhinitis/conjunctivitis needed a certificate to fly, there would be much fewer people flying.
