Because unless EVERY other passenger got left behind, then they somehow new that it was time to board. Probably from the boarding announcement. This is what is going so wrong with America these days, nobody want's to take responsibility for their own actions. If you were in the gate area 25 minutes prior why do you not board? Were you on your cell phone not paying attention?
Bottom line is that if every other passenger made it but you, then we need to look at YOU, not the airline. Even if one other passenger missed it, it's still the tow of you against as much as 120 or so other passengers.
Did you not notice that the people in the gate area started to disappear? Or if they had already started boarding, and you showed up to a fairly empty gate area, did you not ask about boarding? Did you not notice an agent next to the door?
Sorry, but again, lot's of people somehow made the flight, you didn't. Time to take some personal responsibility.
