gate lice

(名詞/複數) 登機門蝨 - 這是一種非正式的說法,指的是那些在機場登機門周圍擠成一團,試圖在自己座位區或排號被叫到之前就登機的乘客。Lice 意為「蝨子」,是 louse 的複數。

引句:
American Airlines has announced it is expanding its new technology to end a process known as "gate lice," which is when passengers cut lines in hopes of boarding a flight early. The system audibly flags when a passenger attempts to board the plane before their designated assignment is called and will automatically reject the ticket.

美國航空 (American Airlines) 公司宣布將擴充一項新技術,以解決一種被稱為「登機門蝨」的現象,即乘客為了提早登機而插隊的情況。當乘客試圖在指定登機時間之前登機時,系統會發出聲音警示,並自動拒絕該機票。
