The worst airline of all time

Here is what I do not understand. Everyone must must must (bite bite bite) board the plane as soon as physically possible, so they can sit down. Then, when the plane lands, everyone must immediately pop up and stand in the aisle or half-crunched near the window for 15 minutes waiting for other people to file out. Why? What does that get you? An extra 3 minutes on the cab line? A little extra rev-up time to achieve full annoyance level while waiting for your checked-in bags because they couldn't possibly get from the plane to the carousel faster than the oldest old person on the plane could crawl there?

While I'm at it, put your shit into the overhead as fast as you can, and do it from within your row. If you are holding up the whole line of people trying to board because you needed to be in your seat in row 7 before anyone else set foot on the plane, you should be trampled to death or a really bad headache.
