The Hawaiian airlines boarding zones concept is meant to ensure a smooth and controlled boarding process. Depending on their seat position frequent flyer status and cabin class, passengers are separated into various zones. First Class travelers and elite HawaiianMiles members are included in Zone 1 which guarantees priority boarding. Extra Comfort passengers are located in Zone 2 and Main Cabin passengers are located in Zones 3 and 4 with boarding commencing from the back of the aircraft. This technique guarantees that passengers may board quickly and without creating needless delays while also assisting in the reduction of crowding at the gate.
