Low-cost carrier Southwest Airlines


I just recently rode on Southwest for the first time and I had always heard they were low cost.

From my experience they've been more expensive then almost all other flight options.

Am I crazy?

they can request complimentary seats – one or two, depending on needs – to accommodate their girth.

Southwest provided its policy to Fox Business which said that passengers of size "have the option of purchasing just one seat and then discussing your seating needs with the Customer Service Agent at the departure gate. If it’s determined that a second (or third) seat is needed, you’ll be accommodated with a complimentary additional seat."

The flight team will then try to effort to make the seating arrangements, potentially moving other passengers around for the "unplanned accommodation."


Yeah.... That's going to go over well on full flights

Fat people are disgusting and more than 50% in Louisiana are obese so if you’re reading this thread and you’re a little chubby….

Low cost carriers are basically public transportation today.

Southwest hasn't been low cost since the major carriers came out with Basic Economy

If tubby requests an extra seat or 2 for free, what happens on a full flight?

Tough shite bigot. Lardbutt McFat needs more room for her jelly rolls so you'll have to miss your last chance to tell grandma goodbye.

I'm plus size in height, leg length, and shoulder width but have no issues fastening a seat belt. I spill over into other seats simply because my shoulders are wider.

Do I get to board early and get an extra seat, too?


If you identify as "a person of size" you should be good to go

They ask for volunteers with the reimbursement stuff.

If no one volunteers, they bump the fat guy.

What if you're a typical OT male and your BMI is 50 but it's all muscle?
