ELI5.Why are airplanes boarded front to back?

1.15K viewsOther

Currently standing in terminal and the question arises, wouldn’t it make sense to load the back first? It seems inefficient to me waiting for everyone in the rows ahead to get seated when we could do it the other way around. I’m sure there’s a reason, but am genuinely curious. Thoughts?

I would make the cabin hot-swappable. Have everyone seated before the plane even arrives.

And ofc a way to fast re-fuel will be required. I’m sure we can get back in the air within 20 mins.
