Delta alters boarding procedures

STATEWIDE - Delta Airlines is changing how passenger board its planes.

It's the company's latest effort to curb the spread of the novel coronavirus.

Passengers will now board planes from the back to the front.

And, fliers will have to wait until their row is called.

The idea is to have people interact less while getting to their seats.

Delta says the change will stay in place at least through May 31st.

First class passengers and Diamond Medallion members will be able to board as usual.
