If you haven't flown lately with Avianca, I tell you that the boarding of the plane is being carried out in a more orderly and logical way, since this process is carried out from behind to the front of the plane and the call is by rows, so I recommend you to be attentive to your assigned seat, This is how order and distancing is maintained (for disembarkation it is done in reverse). Passengers in business class can board at any time.
