And to some people it is also about feeling more superior than the others because they are allowed to go first while the others are still stuck at the queue.
Rows 2-5 on an Airbus 319, Rows 2-6 on an Airbus 320. If the seat you've reserved is in one of these rows, you have Speedy Boarding, also if you've reserved an extra leg room seat (row 1 and the two emergency exit rows) you get the same.

“But if you fly with easyJet, the windowless perches are at the back, rather than in the middle. Seat 31A, to be precise, for those on its A320 aircraft, and seat 26A and 26F on its A319s.”
