Just boarded DL968 SEA-ATL. I took my time in the sky club, and got to the gate as the GA called Zone 1. I figured I would just board in the SkyPriority lane, but to my horror, it was full of kettles! I used the empty General Boarding lane to try to board, and after being ignored for awhile, one of the nice kettles tried to let me in. I explained that I'm in F, and the GA told me that I missed my chance to board early, and need to go to the back of the line behind all the Zone 1. We got into a bit of a shouting match as she said Zone 1 is entitled to use the SkyPriority lane. And the kettles glared at me as I boarded.
At SEA today, SkyPriority = LowestPriority :(
