I don’t have any patience for a person in my assigned space. This is so easy, I’m sorry.

I’m sure losing weight isn’t easy either. The answer if you don’t fit in one seat is to buy two. That’s it.

First time on a flight seeing an argument break out

Is it a long flight?

Den to Phoenix so fairly short. Looks like attendant got it resolved.

It’s ridiculous that we weigh and size bags but not people.

TCuz

7:38am

time for shoulder high plexiglass walls between seats. I kid...kinda

I don't disagree....but not sure it's simple solution to solve.

It seems simple. We have example rollercoaster seats before the lines to make sure you fit.

TCuz

7:54am

Ok,did t realize there are sample RC seats..

TheHop

But what if the person on needs a seat that is 110% bigger or 150%

Because when you interpret a remainder you may need a whole new whole. If 60 students can fit on a bus, but 67 students

unless you have a few rows with slightly larger seats.

Pangare

Eventually they'll make the seats bigger and make everyone pay more.

VenomFarmer

They do offer larger seats, but people choose not to pay for them, expecting

I have never actually thought of that. Now I am going to be confused about that

Painterboy

or they could make the seats a little larger.

Pangare

9:29am

What happens if we change the offending characteristic to smell?

Pangare

9:40am

I don’t have any patience for people spilling into my seat. There are other problems, but this one is objective.

TCuz

10:04am

is it simpler for you to learn patience or for a fat person to loose weight?

Pangare

Bad smells don't objectively factor into the physics and economics of operating

Many airlines have body odor policies, including Delta, United, & American.

TailgateU

For small planes, you have to weigh the people. Just a fact of flying.

If the person weighed ops to take a lighter bag to offset their additional...

Pangare

If total weight is the concern that would be fine, but seat space is different.

TailgateU

10:56am

Correct, and big planes aren't exempt from the same physics.

seacougar

10:41am

They also weigh fuel, btw. People reacting to this as if it were a social issue,

seacougar

I wonder what the solution is. Because obviously it’s not fair to others who are

Duke Silver

Just don’t cram the seats in so tight. Problem solved.

Shawarma

Perhaps solves one problem, but creates another. Fewer seats on a plane mean

Duke Silver

8:04am

Heavier people in the same quantities also make the prices go up, as well.

seacougar

10:40am

Many people value cost over comfort, so airlines have an incentive to reduce

TailgateU

11:08am

In Canada, they declared the obese have a right to two seats for price of one

Gustav

Asinine if true.

seacougar

10:39am

Those seats already exist at the front of the plane, and they cost extra.

TailgateU

10:57am

While I agree that it is ridiculous we weigh bags and not people, how overweight

lilpenny

7:46am

Do airlines even let you buy 2 seats?

Spine

The guy on the aisle is right. He paid for a seat and should not have to accept
