| Boarding Procedure |
Airline customers will receive a boarding pass at check-in. Regular airlines normally use numbered boarding passes, which has the seat number printed. So called Low Cost Carriers use unnumbered passes, and passengers are free to find an empty seat in the aircraft.
Boarding normally goes in two phases, the pre-boarding and the general boarding. After pre-boarding of disabled customers, unaccompanied children, and families with small children, general boarding of all the remaining passengers will take place. If a numbered boarding pass has been issued, boarding of the remaining passengers may be by seating row numbers (e.g. 1 through 25 will board; then 26 through 50; 51 through 75, and so forth). Boarding pass numbers are given in relation to time of check-in and to seat availability.
Note that per Federal Law, children under 15 years of age may not occupy seats in emergency exit rows.
When boarding the aircraft, any carryon item with hard edges or inflexible surfaces should be placed under your seat or on the floor of the overhead bin. Don't place it on top of other items in the overhead bin. Luggage shifts about within the bin, and it could fall out and injure someone when the bin door is opened.
