A Beginner’s Guide to Alaska Airlines Boarding Groups

[airlinesoffice11]

Following elite status members, Alaska Airlines boarding groups continue with Main Cabin passengers. Main Cabin seats are broken down into additional boarding groups, usually starting from the back of the aircraft and moving forward. Passengers seated in the rear rows are generally called before those sitting closer to the front, helping streamline the process and prevent bottlenecks in the aisles. This back-to-front strategy minimizes congestion and gets everyone seated faster. Passengers who purchased Saver Fares are generally among the last to board, as these lower-priced tickets come with fewer privileges. However, they still benefit from Alaska Airlines' emphasis on efficiency and customer care.
