Southwest #Airlines Says Bye to Open Seating
“…passengers will enter the cabin by group.
They’ll be assigned to those groups according to the Window-Middle-Aisle method (WILMA): starting at the back of the airplane and moving forward, window seat holders get onboard first; then middle seaters, also starting at the back of the plane; then aisle.
Airlines use WILMA to reduce clogs in the aisle as people find their seats.”
