Meanings
plural reboarders
- rareOne who boards a vehicle again.
There were an awful lot of reboarders, however, continuing on to New Orleans and beyond. For the first time in days the predominant language was English, and there were as many blacks as whites among the passengers.
1993, Irma Kurtz, The Great American Bus Ride: An Intrepid Woman's Cross-country Adventure1 more example
Unless the delay before take-off is unduly long, or some exigency exists, experienced passengers who are continuing on the flight do not leave the plane. They know that the reboarding process will cast them in with the crowd of new passengers, since all must board together — reboarders receive no precedence.
1983, W. Boyd Littrell, Gideon Sjoberg, Louis A. Zurcher, Bureaucracy as a social problem, page 209
