And I should add to all the fat-haters who have spewed bile here... there was a time for some people when sitting next to someone of a different color elicited the same response you are showing here. Think about that.

Hmmm so you have a 25 year old policy that was put in place when people were smaller and seats were roomier. Ever think to take a look at that? Might not be working out for you anymore, ya think?
I am a "normal" sized passenger (5'5", 140lbs) and MY LUGGAGE gets more legroom on your planes than I do.

You can be sweet as pie, say please and thank you all day long, but if a flight attendant doesn't like what you are wearing, how you look, how big your behind is, what your kid is like (or might be like), or what you drink for breakfast (has anyone asked for OJ in First Class on AA since "Helen" went postal?), you get kicked off, or even worse, written up to be put on a "watch" list.
These are people who are SO unhappy with their job they take it out on their customers (read Heather Poole's blog for a good example, or the Today In The Sky sniping between AA FAs and, well, everyone else).
