If you have a waist measurement of 50" or more, you will pay for 2 seats, unless there is a spare seat on the plane before you depart. In this instance you will get a refund on the second seat.

With all the weight restrictions on baggage and the exorbitant penalties if you go over your allowance, this seems entirely fair.

Have you ever had your airline seat encroached on by a tellytubby? Not funny!

There is a direct cost to the airline with respect to payload and fuel, so why should someone who weighs 20 stone pay the same as someone who weighs 10 stone?

I can see the airlines introducing a scale of fees according to your weight. If it wasn't so expensive installing discrete weighing scales infront of all the check-in desks, I reckon this would have happened already.

why settle for discrete weighing scales?

they should just have big green, orange and red lights above each desk. If you trigger the red light then sirens go off and a spotlight turns on.

Haven't we already done this one?

All we need now is to ban slow and people who can't search from using forums.

I'd ban fat folk, stupid folk and people who think everyone should search a forum before posting a topic just in case they upset the forum police. I'd also ban all the [less of the bad language or we'll be banning YOU! – Mod] who have such a piss boring life that they remember every post that's on a forum.

On second thoughts I wouldn't ban them, I'd kill them.

Post yourself in a box? drill some air holes.

And what Gary said.

Someone's posted that before Gary, you really should search.

have you? really? which one? I'd imagine Tinky Winky would be the most annoying.

You should eat more fibre!

So they're going to do discounts for very small slim peeps then,…………………obviously!

"So they're going to do discounts for very small slim peeps then,…………………obviously!"

Presumably if you can share your seat with another very thin person?

Or you could all quit raping the planet by flying 👿

The BEST solution, surely: give each family flying a total weight allowance based on 90kg x the number of people, where the 90kg can consist of body fat or luggage (pro rata for kids).
Anyone over that pays extra. Sorted

Just don't fly air france, ropey airline in my experience and they hit the ground far to often as well.

Just sit in an aisle seat. Problem solved.

Or install one of those fat sucking machines at the ticket desk.

Fatty gets thin, airline gets tons of fat to sell to the cosmetics industry, normal people don't have to spend three hours with someone elses skin sweating onto them and the planes use less fuel hence less planet raping.

WIN **** WIN.

Everyone stands on a weighing device, with luggage. Total cost per kilo divided by number of passengers. You know, similar to the end of a curry night when the bill lands on your pickle stained table.

No one can complain about that 😆
