The News Minute | January 27, 2015 | 06:59 pm IST Some might consider boarding and de-boarding an airplane a hassle- no one likes waiting in queues and time is precious. And the way we board planes at present apparently does not make any sense. A video by Vox explains how there is a 'better' way to board and deboard planes, which could save both the passengers and the airlines a lot of time, and yet 'no airline uses it'.According to the video, it seems sensible to board the back seats first and gradually work towards the front, which is what most airlines do; but tests prove that this is the slowest method. What is the faster way, you ask? The faster methods can save anywhere between 17 to 14 minutes. Southwest airlines reportedly have the fastest method currently in use, adds the video. Watch the video to know more. TweetFollow @thenewsminute
