Go on diet. Save a ton of money. Then fly private.

So they assume that they are entitled to force airlines to change their business model to accommodate their obesity..

Business model? They're demanding that Boeing redesign aircraft around their fat asses!

Threatening the safety of other passengers.

Kinda hard to believe that is not a violation - blocking the aisle at the very least…

I’m 6’5 and about 230 but I can still fit in a seat between the arm rests. I’ve had two flights recently where the poor bastard beside me was so fat they couldn’t squeeze in the seat. Buy two tickets, get first class or GTFO. I shouldn’t have to cede space or the armrest because you can’t fit in a seat.

These blobs are a real safety problem for all of the passengers on board. Not only can't they move, no one else can move past them. How is this even allowed?


But the flight attendant will have a stroke if your backpack isn’t all the way under the seat in front of you before takeoff. We need major airline reform, big airlines screw over hundreds of people every day with no repercussions.

Uhhh, the frick they do. The have a responsibility to deliver paying passengers to their destinations safely and mostly efficiently. If you’re too far for the seat, you can drive or take a semi to haul your arse around.

I'm pretty sure they experience discomfort everywhere. Blame gravity.

If airlines return to giving out free shite again, they better focus on their frequent Business and 1st Class customers. They either either spending company cash or have enough money to fly whichever airline courts them properly. Everyone else, including fatties, typically go with cheapest fare regardless of carrier.

Where is the petition for tall people? I think anyone over 6’3 shouldn’t have to pay to sit in the exit isle. Also anyone under 6’3 shouldn’t be around to sit exit isle.
