I have sat next to overweight people in Filghts, and I'm so confussed to the Safey Issue that Southwest has so greatly emphasized. What possible threat can a over weight person do that would jeopardize my safety. 1. Sneak my food when not looking... fyi airplane food is crap and by me not eating it is actually increases my safety. 2. taking up room in life raft if plane should go down. Sorry but if I have a choice between choosing a raft with skinny people or over weight people, I'm going with the big guy, becasue if the raft should pop,the big guy can make as a second option as a floating device, again good for my safety . So good on you Kevin you have every right to be pissed off, and seriously Southwest time to draft up a new policy.
