closes 15-min early?
JBU closes flights 15 min early?
I showed at the gate with 13 min left and flight was closed and leaving with 2 jump seats open.
Gate agent said flight was closed and their policy is 15 min.
Lie?

Truth. Unfortunately this is how they're combatting bad ontime performance. They want the CABIN door closed at 15 but we can't push until 10..... try to get flight crew attention, most will make sure you get on at that time.

Please notify your jumpseat committee that JB gate agents are violating this policy. This needs to end.
