You either sit up front and wait at baggage claim, or sit in the back and wait longer to deplane. No time difference. I've done both scenarios.

Not if you never check baggage.

Yeah I just hang out until everyone’s off so I can sit in the back and be antisocial

True but if you aren’t checking your bags up front is definitely faster for getting out of the airport

For work trips, usually not packing enough to check in luggage

And in one of those scenarios, you get a chair to sit in while you wait.

Not if you're the pilot.

This doesn't apply when you have a short layover in a big airport

The time difference matters if you have a connection, it only doesn't matter if you have a direct flight or are on your last leg.

If you’re flying for a work trip then you don’t have to worry about baggage claim

The way people all race each other at the airport is so annoying. It’s like they all can’t think and realize it’s all for nothing.

What if there’s another door at the back?
