Good
There needs to be consequences for letting yourself get so disgustingly fat.

there should be a section for oversized people that can’t properly fit in a seat. They can all smash against each other in that section and see how it feels.

If I’m tall can I buy more legroom?

Are you still undecided on whether you’re tall, btw?

Fatties should be taxed and fined for being gross.

I have a friend that until she lost the weight she’d purchase two seats. Seems pretty reasonable as a request.
Multiple times though they’ve tried to get her to give up her “empty” seat on an overbook. Or for some family to “sit together”. So is SW actually going to let them keep the empty seat or use this as a way to make more money?

Our culture tells these people being fat isnt solvable with basic lifestyle changes. Its one of the many new "victim" classes.

Can't we just throw a couple of bench seats in the cargo hold and stick them sitting there? One long ratchet strap holding them down.

Maybe add fatty seats, two to a row instead of three.
Make them (or anyone else who wants more room) pay 50% more.
Problem solved.

If they just made a weight limit and charged for additional weight like the post office people would lose weight or skip traveling. Win win
Oh, and everyone should have to get on a scale pre flight like you are going offshore but your weight displays above on a tv.

Death to fatty!

Now if they would crack down on the 84 pre-boarders who are in Olympic-level health . . . .

It’s certainly a gateway to start forcing people into a more healthy lifestyle.
I know I know, conspiracy. But with NY having a fountain drink size law, restaurants having to disclose calories etc, the movement is on.
Now, I think to each their own but if everyone who was overweight lost the lb without using chemicals we as a whole would save billions of dollars. I don’t even know how you put a number on it, but it would be massive.
It’s almost like the restaurants and hospitals work in unison lol.

It could be a ploy to put 4 seats where there are now 3 and 3 seats where there are 2 and declare everybody fat so you have to buy two seats. Only anorexic people or 11 year old gymnastic kids can fly in one seat.
