The airline’s new boarding process is rolling out just ahead of the busy holiday travel months, and is aimed to speed up boarding efficiencies for passengers.
United Airlines is debuting new plans to let economy passengers with window seats board first. The airline’s new boarding process, called WILMA , is rolling out just ahead of the holiday travel months, with an aim to speed up boarding efficiencies. United is projecting that it will shed two minutes of boarding, which will help the planes take off on time. Overall, the airline will be able to add a new flight to the schedule each day.
United told FOX Business that it is in the process of retrofitting its aircraft with larger overhead bins that will have enough space for each customer to have a carry-on suitcase onboard. The larger bins are also available on all of United’s new aircraft. The updated storage capacity will "largely eliminate the need for customers in later boarding groups to gate check their luggage." The new updates will not be completed until 2026, according to United.
