Southwest, please do not apologize for doing your best to ensure the safety and comfort of all of your passengers. Normal sized people do not feel comfortable or safe when a fat person next to them is infringing on their space. I applaud your airline for respecting the rights of normal sized people and not falling for the "discrimination" line of fat people who do not take responsibility for themselves. Maybe you should make all the fat people sit next to others with very bad body odor so they can have the same discomfort and intrusion during their flight.

are you kidding me? this is discrimination considering the average size of people nowadays. why try to cram as many people as possible onto a plane? i am between average and fat and still was a little snug. it's about the bottom line and nothing else. and not all people are fat because they can't take care of themselves. personally, my size is from an accident. i know people who have thyroid problems. everyone has a right to travel by plane. and if you don't like fat people, then go hole your ignorant self up in a wall or take a walk in the shoes of someone like myself that has medical issues that causes me and many other people to be overweight in varying degrees.
