Because we strive for non-discrimination in our society.

Discrimination happens every day in our society. You being too fat to fit in a seat should mean you damn sure are discriminated against in the form of being forced to pay for an extra seat or not fly.


Anyway, I've found in my travels the obese people generally aren't found in the Economy Plus (or equivalent) seating areas. So I always upgrade if I don't get the upgrade automatically for status. Usually cheaper than a 1st Class domestic by quite a bit. Now when I fly to Seattle each year, I just go with 1st.

Got stuck in the window seat next to the dreaded obese man on my flight just now. Unbelievable. These people need to be banned from public spaces like this. Dude was so fat he overflowed all over the arm rest onto me. Could barely move. He was so fat he couldn’t even lower his tray table because his gut blocked it. Do these people have no shame? I’d never leave the house if I looked like that




why you didnt tell him that? because you knew if he grabbed you it was over.

They need a something just like that box you have to set your carry on into to make sure it is within regulations. If the arse don’t fit you don’t get to sit.

I know right. Seriously, there has to be an unbiased mass formula they can use right?

You sound nice and not judgmental at all. I hope you never have a crippling health issue that others see as some sort of burden. I'm sorry you had to associate with an "obese" person for a few hours out of your life, you triggered piece of shite.

Much worse is the Indian man with BO who puts his elbows well over both armrests and tries to watch your tv.

No they don't. It's a private business.
