"Delta Air Lines Introduces Updated Boarding Process for Passengers"
Delta Air Lines is updating its boarding system to simplify the process for passengers, replacing group names with numbered groups one through eight starting May 1. The change will not affect the existing boarding order, with Basic Economy passengers still boarding last. Delta will continue to offer pre-board opportunities for those needing extra assistance and update boarding lane signs to display the new zone numbers. Other airlines, such as United, have also made recent changes to their boarding processes.
