          They should take the back row of coach and remove a seat on both sides and make the chairs larger.

          This row would be reserved for really fat people who can't fit in the normal seats.

          If you remove 2,3 normal chairs to install the wide-ass chairs you should raise the price a tad to recover the loss.

                        If the plane goes down at sea the fat pig will eat all the rations before help arrives. Trying to wrestle the last twinky away from a 400 pound slob wouldn't be fun.
                        They should pay more money for this reason alone.

                                i think instead of charging them for double seats, they should have a row of treadmills line up in the back that fat people have to use at no extra charge.

                                  I don't think fat people should pay more. Do you think we should pay them more at their work because they are fat?

                                  Being fat is a disease that is out of their control. So I don't think they should be paying double.

                                    Should dumb people also pay more because they can't fasten their seatbelt without help?

                                      Congrats to them! They will obviously get sued but I am sure their counsel has a good plan.

                                      Like I said to my wife this morning when she called to tell me the news (LOL) - it costs extra to super-size at McDonalds right? Besides the fact that morbidly obese people fucking stink, most often it's a lifestyle choice and not caused by geneology or something out of their control. Fuck em!

                                        If I have to pay extra if my luggage is over a certain weight, why shouldn't overweight people have to pay more?

                                          the issue is: should they pay more if they take up two seats? i'd say yes for full flights, simply because that's revenue southwest is losing. for other flights, i guess i wouldn't be a fan of that. in any case, if they don't charge more, southwest will just raise the rates for everyone to make up for it.

                                          for most people, it's not like they were born unable to control it. they developed patterns and behaviors that maintain their "disease".

                                            I believe that's Southwest's plan. Pay more for an extra seat, then get a refund if the plane isn't full.

                                                how fat is too fat? Maybe they should just charge US by the pound.
                                                I'll be horribly embarassed if I get to the airport and they say, Sorry lady.. you're too fat? God, whose job is that? the fat judger?

                                                I personally think they should charge more if a person doesn't have anti-perspirant on. They need a whole row to themselves.

                                                      Your ticket should be based on how much you weigh... and how much luggage. W/ one carryon bag I shouldn't have to pay as much as a fat guy w/ 3 suitcases. The fat guy is burning more fuel.

                                                        Each ass cheek takes up a seat.

                                                        If they take 2 seats they should pay for those 2 seats or buy a first class ticket with more room to start with.
                                                        It is unfair they can take up 2 seats or crowd some fellow beside them to death and not be forced to pay extra.
                                                        being "big" or slightly chubby might be out of some ones control but these people 300,400,500 pounds have no excuse.
                                                        They stuff their face with chips & chocolate bars all day and never exercise.

                                                          Being fat is a disease that is out of their control. So I don't think they should be paying double.
                                                          Oh please, last year i noticed i was getting a hefty gut from all the junk food and sitting in front of a computer. SO i cut ou8t the junk food and work out 2 or 3 times a day for like 30 minutes a pop. Gut is gone. Amazing how that works.

I had a transfer flight and this fat guy had is elbow on me the entire flight because he couldn't keep it on "his side". He came on at the last minute and we were already up in the air when I realized that it was going to be a problem. It was also completley full so there was no shuffling anyone around. I couldn't even put the arm rest down because he wouldn't have been able to fit. I even asked him politely if he could move his arm over a little because he was hitting me (as if he didn't know) and he said "I'm over as far as I can go" and just ignored it as if it was no big deal. That's when I got pissed. It was like he was saying "I'm bumping into you in your seat that you paid for, oh well, deal with it." Fuck that, they should be charged for two seats. That's an inconvenience to other passengers that are sitting next to them. If I pay for a ticket I don't want someone's body touching me because they can't fit in their seat. That was hands down the worst plane ride of my life.

                                                                                    If they don't charge fat people that can't fit in their seats more for riding in planes, they should give a discount to the passengers that have to sit next to them.

                                                                                      Being fat is a disease that is out of their control. So I don't think they should be paying double.
                                                                                      I fail to see your point. Many, many people have diseases or conditions that greatly affect their everyday lifestyle, and they ALWAYS have to pay extra for them if need be. If someone needs extra room on a plane, it should be their responsibility and common courtesy to reserve the next seat so that both them and their fellow passengers can ride comfortably.

                                                                                      If I was that fat, you can bet I would reserve the next seat. There's no way in hell I would sit in those small seats for 3-4 hours. It's common courtesy, good Lord. It's not like we're saying they should pay extra just because they're fat.

                                                                                      Someone mentioned paying per pound. Awesome idea. Totally for it. I usually take several suitcases and bags anyway, but still for it. Sounds pretty fair to all of the walk-ons. I wonder what the airlines would have to say about that?

                                                                                              My last flight home from florida i was watching this huge fat guy board the plane. In one hand he had a big tup of fries and in the other hand a gigantic cup of pepsi. Charge that fat ass 4 times the price, he deserves it.

                                                                                                No offense dude, but that is THE dumbest comparison I've heard yet. I mean, get serious here. If you are obese, then you need 2 seats in order to accomodate your whole disgusting, smelly, cottage cheese body. Being black has NOTHING to do with size and how many seats you need. That is why they are charging obese people extra money--because of simple economics (i.e. take up 2 seats, pay for 2 seats.). Your argument is invalid.

                                                                                                BTW, to whoever called chubby people "fluffy", you cracked me up. too funny.

Sure I'm fat but I don't fit in the fuckin airline seats due to HEIGHT. my knees are right against the seat infront of me and it's horrible. In canada first class is 4X the cost of economy and I have a hard time justifying paying the extra but on longer flights I ABSOLUTLY need the leg room and fork out the extra money not for first class service but only for the few extra inches for my legs.
