Business and First Class passengers have pre-boarding benefits.
Pre-Board is a strange word. When mentioned, all of us will immediately understand what it means however, if you look it up in your standard (I used Merriam-Webster) dictionary, "Pre-board" does not exist.
"Pre-" means earlier or prior to
"Board" means to allow on board
So if you put those two words together, the way airlines use it, "Pre-Board" actually means 'prior to being allowed to board' or 'prior to boarding'.
Isn't that the time when we all stand and wait for the ground staff to allow all of us -- whether seated on economy, business or first class -- to board?
