priority boarding
First to enter
Priority boarding is the privilege of boarding an airplane before general passengers, typically granted to first-class travelers, frequent flyers, or those who pay extra.
Airlines use it as both a perk and a revenue stream: Priority boarding costs an extra $25 each way.
The main advantage is guaranteed overhead bin space.
