re: Why do people rush to be first to board a plane?

Maybe because of worrying about overhead carry on space but Ive only had to gate check a carry on one time due to lack of space.

JetBlue FTW.

Board rows back to front. Creates much less headache when dealing with overhead space and the whole boarding process goes much smoother.

I'm sure more airlines do back to front first, but JetBlue is awesome.
