Probably not. I had a peculiar experience with Easyjet a couple of
months ago. I checked in just after the flight was opened. When I
came to board they were calling by boarding pass number and I found I
was near the back of the queue. I find it very hard to believe that
all of the other people checked in before me ( not impossible but
unlikely) so I am still wondering what the score was there.


Easyjet may or may not enforce the boarding priority system for any given
flight, depending, it seems, on how they feel.... I've checked in early, got
a low number, and still not been first on. Some passengers are either too
rude, too stupid, or both, to understand the system and as soon as there's a
move towards the aircraft they're on their feet, regardless of what priority
they've been assigned. Gate staff don't help either - they don't explain
the system when they call the flight, and not everyone will have flown with
that airline before...
