[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]About six years ago I was flying economy from SFO to ORD and I had an aisle seat. In the middle seat was a 300 pounder who couldn’t help but spread out leaving me to lean over the aisle for five hours getting hit by carts and people walking by. The next morning my neck and back hurt like hell. I had recently retired and we are very high NW. Now I fly first class and while I hunt for the best deal I’m not flying in economy. I’m too old, too wealthy and too tired of flying in what has become a cattle car. [/quote] Airlines should charge by the pound. They charge for extra luggage! [/quote] Airlines should have each passenger get on the scale with all their luggage, including personal items, coats and carryons. Any passenger whose total body and luggage weight exceeds the allowance should pay by the pound. [/quote] So we should publicly fat shame? Great idea! I can't imagine any knock on consequences from that.[/quote] We should definately not publicly fat shame. But the airlines should require anyone who does not fit in their seat to purchase a 2nd seat (or purchase first class to fit). It's not my fault you are too big for the seat and I should not be required to let you encroach on my seat. I paid for my seat and my space, I didn't pay for only 75% of my seat [/quote] Does this go for manspreaders too? Because I can guarantee you that inconsiderate men who "need" to cross or spread their legs have taken up my space on airline seats far more than fat people who are generally quite considerate about space on airline seats. As in, they notice how much space they are taking and try to be considerate.[/quote]
