Waiting in the airport concourse as my flight is starting to board. I am assigned to board in a late zone, and it seems like the attendants are taking forever to transition toward my zone.
My watch ticks to the next minute and I can see that I have been sitting here for a half hour. They have been boarding for over 15 minutes, now. Apparently someone needs extra assistance getting onboard, and I don't begrudge them the time. I'm sure that we will still depart ontime.
