LOL. Must be a troll. I thought it was someone with serious mental health issues, but no. A troll. ![]() |
You are an ignorant moron if you believe that. Do some actual research (and read prior posts about it IN this thread, and you will learn that the airlines will often take them and refund you so. But I love your confidence in your uneducated comment. |
I think that if you are booking a second seat for a medical reason (you are very obese and can not fit into a standard seat) that the airline should not be able to take that second seat away from you. If you are booking a second seat for convenience purposes - want a place to set your book, don't feel like sitting next to anyone else, etc - then the airline should be able to take that seat away at their discretion. |
Well, no. They shouldn't. |
If you need two seats, you should pay for two seats |
I don't understand why people get upset and scream fat shaming when people are so fat they take up another person's paid seat?! I posted up thread that this happened to me last week on a flight. The woman had to hold my seatbelt strap up because she was sitting on half of it so I could buckle it. Why is her right to be fat more important than my right to the full seat I paid for and easy access to my seatbelt? She should have been told to buy a second seat! She had to put the arm rest up between us because she was so big! |
There is a difference between a medical necessity and a wanted convenience. I actually "get" how a passenger may miss a flight and need desperately needs to get on the next available flight (maybe they need to get to a sick family member). If you have booked two seats because you don't feel like holding your book, I can see an airline taking that spare seat back from you to accommodate another passenger. I can not see an airline expecting people to squish in together and basically share the same seat. That's nuts. |
They do. It happens all the time. |
Which airlines routinely do this? Because it is nuts. |
I still don’t get how the woman in the middle seat is the bad guy. No she shouldn’t have said pig but that was after being called b***ch and having random people attach her plus being outed publicly. I feel these airline videos are very unfair to airline passengers. You have a problem on a flight and suddenly you are an internet sensation?
Having been in the same situation (I am small and could fit).The people were kind and the stewardess moved us but geez it was impossible for that lady. The people I sat next to were half the size of those 2 and it was still a squish. |
And they were completely unapologetic about sitting half into her seat. I think they just wanted her to quietly ask to change seats like most other people would do. And if she dared raise a fuss about it - well, record her fussing and blast her on the internet. Nice. |
Because she acted like a bitch. She could have nicely asked the flight attendant for another seat. Or asked the couple nicely. But she didn't. She chose to act like a nasty bitch. |
Asked the couple nicely what? To stop being so obese and actually fit into the seats they chose to buy rather than taking someone else’s? I don’t get what you’re suggesting. Ask them to actually even pretend to care how obnoxious they were being by stealing something that someone else paid for? What? |
They wanted her to sit quietly and just put up with them half sitting on her the entire flight. As had apparently (according to the couple) happened every week on their other flights. Basically shame and intimidate her into submission. Outrageous. |
