Shame to all Airport Line Cutters

There are a few universal truths when it comes to airports: calories don’t count, alcohol can be consumed at any time of the day, and outlets/chargers are a sacred commodity.

There’s also the universal experience of line cutters: those self-important individuals who feel they can ignore the boarding groups (we’re looking at you, group D...) and wiggle to the front of the line to get on the plane first.  

We all hate to see the line-cutters, and American Airlines is finally putting an end to early boarder shenanigans. Airlines, after all, make big bucks by selling customers early boarding upgrades, so it makes sense that they’d want to end line cutting that minimizes the value of the paid perk. American Airlines is rolling out a new technology system that will play a beep if a customer has a boarding group that has not been called yet.  

Want to avoid the beep of shame? Stock up on these travel essentials that will keep you and your travel crew content in the terminal until it’s your rightful time to board:
