Fatties should just keep quiet and either
1. Lose weight and stop blaming airlines
2. Pay for two seats or sit in first

Sick of the victim nonsense when fat people get fat purely on their own




Or fat people could be forced to walk to their destination. That would help them not be so fat.

Something's gotta change. Either make them pay for 2 seats and ensure they're somehow centered between those seats, or build a fatties only section with oversized but simple seats.

I had to have a large lesbian woman rest her fat on my body for 7 hours last week and I almost went insane.

I'd be curious if this is still the trajectory with the hot Ozempic/Wegovy/Mounjaro development. Feels like everyone is on it, and I imagine is only catching more steam by the day.



In a couple years it will come out that it causes all kinds of cancers and terrible outcomes so…

They weigh you and your bags before going offshore so I don’t why airlines can’t do this.

Stick them all on the same flight.
Unfortunately, the weight limit for the flight will be reached.

Science is not PC correct and woke either.

Charge by the width of the butt. Was in line for a flight to Korea and there was a woman in front of me that was definitely a double-wide. Wasn't next to me on the plane!

We have ozempic, mounjaro and other weight loss drugs. We have lap band surgery and gastric bypass. What's these people's excuses?

Everything, except living people, is shipped and charged according to weight.

100%

It is shocking to me how many of my patients are on those drugs. Primary doctors are handing them out like candy.

They always talk about themselves. They NEVER talk about the discomfort they bring upon every other person on that row, in particular the person(s) forced to be sitting next to the them. Even walking down the aisle, every person on the aisle gets a face full of arse. They should all have to pay a discomfort fee that goes to reimbursing travelers stuck next to them for their ticket cost.

Just make most planes 2 aisle 2 and charge a couple hundred more per ticket and make everyone happy.

I was recently stuck between two large people in a middle seat. They were overweight, but not huge by any stretch, and we literally could not use the arm rests. Thank God it was only a couple of hours from DFW to Asheville.

If you're taking up two seats, by damn you're paying for two seats.

God forbid people be accountable for their own decisions. The horror.
