Let's optimize it a bit:

- Get everybody on a boat in NYC harbor with ferry level security (i.e. not much)

- As the boat is travelling to the platform, perform the more thorough check in, any security scans, etc. Everyone simultaneously straps down in their seats, last minute toilet runs etc.

- Slot the passenger capsule into the rocket like a cartridge and take-off immediately at arrival. Plot twist: the capsule was on the boat. Passengers might not even get to see the rocket.

I like the whole cartridge idea and that would surely help get the human component out of the whole thing.

If this were to happen I would imagine it to not be a capsule, but simply entire rows of chairs.

The main killer would still be the whole transit between the harbor and the rocket, but this could probably shave about half an hour.
