"Delta Air Lines to Revamp Passenger Boarding Process"

Delta Air Lines will revert to a numbered zone boarding process starting May 1, 2023, replacing its current method of boarding by named categories. The new zones will provide more clarity for customers and will be printed on boarding passes. This change marks the end of a five-year boarding process aimed at bringing consistency and simplicity to the gate and boarding experience. Other airlines, such as United and American, have also made adjustments to their boarding procedures in efforts to save time and improve efficiency.
