and never underestimate the stupidity of passengers - a couple of years ago I was heading from LHR to Copenhagen in February and discovered BA were boarding two flights - Copenhagen & Nairobi - down the same bridge (God knows why - but we had to walk to the plane)

To me, it was pretty clear which line was which - one was full of tall blonde types with enough coats on to stamp to the N pole on foot and the other was full of E African people in National Dress, or summer clothes (even the dreaded Safari Suit!!) - but amazing how many people got into the wrong queue and had to be redirected at the aircraft door
