Will all passengers have to board through the same door? Something like this might work OK with multiple boarding tunnels at a gate.

Southwest Airlines already has multiple jetways at a few gates (at a handful of airports). The second one extends over the wing to the rear door. They fly 737's exclusively, but their average leg length is so short that they save a lot of money just by shaving 5 minutes from the boarding time.

"May I have your attention, please. Flight # 4376 from Paris will now be offloading passengers at gates B4, B6, B8, B10 and C3."
