This instruction was seemingly ignored by both passengers AND flight attendants and eventually took 2 flight attendants and 3 passengers to solve this conundrum. ...so i don't have a lot of faith in flight attendants being able to help the situation.

As an airline pilot let me give you my 2 cents. Passengers don't slow down loading, cargo baggage does. The time it takes to get people's bags under the aircraft takes forever. The passenger will actually board before their bag goes through all the extra security on it's way to the plane.

Yea. If airlines made it cheaper to check more luggage and just didn’t allow carryons except in necessary cases, it would probably make air travel more convenient in general.

from a user experience pov, if you make the boarding as quick as possible - the customer will assume they'll take off quicker, however, their assumptions will lead to disappointments due to the fact that, as you've mentioned, refueling and cargo loading takes a lot of time too. if you think about it logically, if the onboarding takes as much time as the refueling and the loading, once the person finally sits down, they're going to think that they will take off soon - which in this case would be the truth and sort of an illusion of "we're taking off as soon as everyone boards" and it doesn't matter how quickly the plane boards similarly, in the airports - if from the point you leave the plane, to the point you pick up your baggage is short and you arrive quicker than the baggage does, you are going to be annoyed. the best solution, which a lot of airports take approach on, is making the walk to the baggage area a lot longer than it needs to be, in this way, the illusion is, it isn't the baggage that is slow, we just need to walk a lot further to get to it. as people are doing a task that seems necessary, they aren't focused so much on what is going on in the background.

I think there is also something to be said about baggage claim inefficiencies. Sometimes if you check a bag and have a connecting flight the underluggage doesn't make the transfer leaving you stranded with whatever you could fit in your purse for a day. Also, waiting for 40 min at your final destination for the baggage to start coming down the carousel even if you didn't transfer. Then having to wait for the luggage to make enough rounds that you can tell if it was lost or damaged is a huge waste of time. Especially in countries where instead of forming a circle standing well back from the carousel so everyone has a clear view and path to the bags, and can grab theirs as soon as it lands on their side, the people crowd right up to the side to wait for the bags. Resulting in shoving through people,, walking around people for better views, chasing your bag around the carousel or waiting for another revolution because you can't get to it in time with all the people in the way. And finally dragging your bag through a throng of randomly placed people doing the same. I avoid checked luggage not only for the fees. But by preference.

@fazdoll

I guess the way to get around it is to allow one bag checked free and instead charge for using the overhead bins.

Then the only people using the bins would be business travelers and people on their first leg of travel. It's a compromise.

Can I volunteer an idea to help with human’s inability to follow instructions ? It’s the fact that when people don’t know you’re breaking a rule, it’s much easier to break it. An example is people boarding the plane although it’s not their group’s turn. In comparison, when plane staff calls people group by group to UNBOARD the plane (row 1 to 15, 15 to 30 and so on), people tend to follow that rule much more, otherwise it’s OBVIOUS they’re braking it and are trying to take advantage of the system and go past people they were not meant to. SO an idea would be to make rule breaking obvious from the start, for example by printing boarding passes of different colors, and calling them out by colors (« we now invite passengers with a RED ticket to board the plane »). This would draw attention to the ticket’s color which is obvious to everyone, and people couldn’t hope that the front desk staff will « not notice » that they’re from another group. In my mind, it works !

and that’s why I like to wait until the majority of passengers get on the plane and then get on the board. I’m just too lazy to stand and wait in the line.

The fastest way, and applicable in low cost airlines, would be to not assign seats in advance, but print the seat allocation at the gate. This way, we can fill out the plane back to front and window to aisle simultaneously, and maintain groups sitting together.

People are always late, running out of cargo space, and rearranging seats to sit with each other and at the window.

There is actually an interesting boarding method that the military uses when they do mass transportation of soldiers that is potentially more efficent then Steffan Perfect. When the US Military deploys entire batallions or brigades of troops from one continent to another, they do so by chartering entire 777 or other dreamliner class trans-oceanic flights. The method is back to front, every second isle, but with a twist. You load back to front, no choice of which seat, and you do not stowe your bag immediatly. You sit down in the seat with your bag in your lap and wait. Once the row has filled and the row in front has filled, all bags are passed to the isle seat, who shoves them all into the overhead bins one by one for the entire row. While you are sitting down with your bag in your lap, you have a couple moments to pull out whatever items you will immediatly need and prep your bag to be stowed. I do not know if the method has a specific name, but I experienced it on three separate occations going to or from deployments. This seating method basicly reduces all stopages from stowing bags and from seat shuffling to nearly zero. This however would basicaly never work for a civillian flight for many reasons. People traveling together and trust being the major issues. General travelers will likely not trust in handing their bag of personal belongings to a random stranger to have them stuff it into the overhead, and the random isle-seat passenger will probably not be willing to do the extra work of putting 5-7 bags into he overhead one after another. (As I said, trans-pacific flights, where it's two isles and 7-8 seats in the middle row and 4-5 in each side row, and sometimes even an upstairs and downstairs.) People traveling in groups would want to all sit together, and this seating method has basicly zero promise that they will even be in the same row, as by the time they get to their seats, the group might be split between two entirly different sections. So while this seating method is highly efficent, it can basicly only occur when every single person involved is on the same page, knows the plan, and is basicly ordered 'this is how this is going to happen so just shut up and do it because it's not up for debate' Edit : It's also one of the only times when every single person on the plane has at least one firearm, but they have all taken the bolt out and put it in their pocket, and nobody has any ammo.

I love how the expression of boarding people changes when they board at theoretically fastest boarding method.

This could easily be solved by having assigned seating in the waiting area. Each seat would have various numbers or labels that would correspond with the waiting area. People would come in and sit in their seat in the order they will be on the airplane. Then one entire row all window A seats could get up at the same time and single file go onto the plane back to front. Now airports have a variety of airplanes, and so it would not be needed to shuffle chairs, one could have different labels (green, blue, red,) and if using airplane A everyone sits in seats according to that color label. A flight attendent could walk around and help people as needed ahead of time, if there were difficulties in getting ready. It might also be easier to do every other row. (We are now boarding A seats even numbers, we are boarding A seats odd numbers.) If the seats were laid out carpet colors or tape on the carpet could make it easier for everyone to "know" where they are on the airplane. This could even include indications for bathrooms and or emergency exits. As parties want to board together, they wait till the last person in the party boards.

Your best point was definitely that you said parties could wait until the last person is called and board with them. But like clarke said, the seating arrangement would be tough because each airplane that a boards at a given gate would have a different seat layout. Not only that, but people often like privacy at gates since they work and charge their electronics. Not to mention, airports don't have that kind of space-- they can't just have an entire airplane sized boarding area.

@@blueberrymuffin4921 Yes, many times airports will load multiple planes and gates all in the matter of a few minutes. An alternative of this would be to have a standing area, with assigned numbers on the floor. "Everyone in SEATS A please rise and get in order by your seat number according to the floor numbers." Unfortunately, airports have been really slow on adding in the charging ports, and for a while some airports even purposely hid and removed outlets. Fortunately now, it seems like there are more and more outlets. Today, it makes sense to put them everywhere. Still, would love to see a better method, but who know if it will ever happen.

I was surprised to learn recently that the front and back doors are not exclusive to certain airlines but actually a feature on many planes, it's just that many airports only have the sky bridges for one door. I was on a domestic US flight recently on a relatively small plane, and I had a connection at a small airport I had never flown into before. To my surprise, they had 2 bridges and were able to use both doors, so getting on and off was quick and easy. The vast majority of airports don't seem to do this though, at least here in the US.

I'd be willing to partake in the 4 group, every other row method though you have to line up within your group from highest seat value to lowest seat value (ideally). The other method is to load the plane from front exit and rear exit. You can load mid to front and mid to back, while letting your expensive class board group board forward of the economy class' entrance. The (3rd) option is not 100+ boarding groups by like 8. Southwest’s system seems happy, energetic and marketable faster than current practices of front to back / back to front. Sure it isn’t staggeringly fast but this company’s energy is huge difference compared to other airlines.

CGP Grey is circumcised confirmed.

In Australia most airlines board from the front and back at the same time. So if your in rows 15 - 25 you will go to the back of the plane and board via some stairs. Means you don't have a situation where someone in seat 19 is waiting for people at the front to put their bags away. Doesn't completely remove the bag issue but it reduces it somewhat.

The Reaper method maximizes time for cheaper seats at the back and minimizes time for more expensive seats at the front. This increases the time difference and incentive to pay more money to get the seats at the front.

This also slow down the disembarking as people in the front have to trek back to get their luggage from overhead bins because they are no longer directly above them. Back to front does not have this same issue, and thus I believe your theory here is flawed from a practical standpoint.

I always laugh when we land and ppl are just standing waiting to get out as it takes 20 minutes for the bridge to get in place and they have to wait for everyone to get out before they can even move 😂😂😂

The problem with the window-middle-aisle thing is that families often sit together, and I don’t think a baby would be able to go on its own

That's what I was thinking. Imagine a plane calling for your 3 year old to board by themself and then making you wait another however-many-minutes while your child is unsupervised and alone and definitely clueless about what to do. Or the other way around, having to leave your child in the waiting area for who knows how long.

Ive traveled with my family a lot! Most airlines will let you go in with your family. If you have one family member in the window area, then the whole family will go at once since they are probably going to be sitting in the same area :) There is usually also prioritization for those that are pregnant, with young infants or elderly.

And this is why families board first, alongside those with special needs and unaccompanied minors. No kids will be left to board alone with whatever method the airline uses.

in australia we don’t have these weird “boarding groups” we just have priority/people who need assistance, and then everyone else boards from the front or the back depending on where you sit. (ie: rows 1-15 board from the front bridge, and 16-30 from the back stairs)

You did mention the flaw that would defeat any improvement in boarding methods, the human inability or just plain unwillingness to follow directions. When I went to basic training in the military some decades ago, we were 80 guys in one unit for many long weeks. To go from one place to another, we marched. To get into marching formation we formed a height line, tallest in the front to shortest in the back, then filed into marching formation. I can't remember standing behind the same guy twice in a row, ever. Did our relative heights change from one hour to another? I doubt it. We just failed at even the most simple of cooperative tasks.

That’s why when I land in a plane, I just sit there for like 7 minutes so that it’s not too stressful waiting for everyone else in front of my to get off the plane

@@LL-fw7hi Or you can have a straight row of seats from the waiting area to the plane and have everyone line up and sit down as soon as the plane gets there. Anyone tired of waiting can just sit down. Anyone who doesn't want to stand inside the plane for 7 minutes waiting to sit can just sit outside the plane and choose to be one of the last to board. You should get a discount if you don't bring anything that has to go overhead and you should pay extra (just $1 per bag) if you do. Stewards shouldn't have to argue with passengers over anything. They should have body cameras and after the flight they can submit a video of a rude passenger who had 3 pieces of carry-on and 2 purses and a backpack and a laptop bag and a briefcase and 3 plastic grocery bags and a baby bag (but not baby) to their supervisor and they can charge that passenger's credit card and extra $30 for decreasing the quality of the flight for their other customers and employees.

Another problem with Steffen “perfect” is that there is a faster method. 6 x full columns of seats from back to front. That means significantly less pull always than is depicted in this video, therefore it’d be faster than “steffen perfect”.

That's why it would have to be in a perfect world

to make a method induce MORE misery, load front to back, but also aisle-middle-window, maximizing seat shuffling. also, you can make your airline, instead of charging extra for bigger bags, you get put on a different plane, with other people who have bigger bags.

This video is so well-made that I keep coming back

You could position all the chairs in the waiting room in the exact order as the plane is. Every chair has the same number as in the plane. So basically let people organize themselves first before boarding while the plane is being cleaned.

It’s weird because here in Europe, I have never experienced boarding groups-It’s always been the ‘planes here’ method. In fact, up until a few years ago, EasyJet didn’t even use allocated seats so you could sit wherever you want. The closest thing to boarding groups I have experienced here is when they open the front and back doors of the planes so you are told if you sit in the rear of the plane to use the back door. They don’t force you or organise you but most people do it on their own as it is legitimately more convenient.
