Delta changes the way fliers board planes
|New York (CNN Business)A new boarding process is coming to Delta Air Lines.
Beginning on January 23, 2019, the airline will ditch zone boarding in favor of a new — and more complex — process based on ticket type and color.
Despite the expansion in number of groups from six to eight, Delta said the new format hopes to “encourage fewer customers to line up in the gate area” and ultimately speed up boarding.
