boarding order

Passenger loading priority

Boarding order is the sequence in which passengers are allowed to board an aircraft, typically organized by zones, groups, or status tiers.

Airlines assign boarding order based on ticket class, loyalty program membership, or seat location: My boarding order is Group 4.

The system aims to manage cabin flow and reduce gate congestion.
