United Airlines Implements New Boarding Process, Prioritizing Window Seat Passengers

TL;DR Summary
United Airlines will implement a new boarding policy starting October 26, prioritizing economy class passengers with window seats, followed by those with middle seats, and then aisle seats. This change aims to reduce boarding times by up to two minutes. Pre-boarding groups and boarding groups one through three will remain unchanged. Group four will be for passengers with middle seats, and group five for those with aisle seats. The revised policy applies to U.S. domestic flights and select international destinations. United Airlines tested the new policy at five airports and found it to be faster.
