Airline seats are snug as it is even when an average size person is next to you so why over the last couple of years is the overweight issue just now coming up?? I will tell you why because the airlines found a sure fire way to make sure that flight is sold out of seats not necessarily sold out for capacity. I am not an overweight person and am not condoning those whose decisions have allowed them to become overweight but it also isn't always a choice for some to be overweight. They are already looked down upon when people just look at them so hey lets point out the fat person on the flight and draw more attention to them. SERIOUSLY THESE SEATS ARE SMALL AS IT IS HAVE THE AIRLINE EMPLOYEES EVER SAT IN THESE SEATS WITH SOMEONE SITTING NEXT TO THEM, it sucks!! So maybe the airlines should sacrifice some bucks and make the seats a bit bigger when they assemble the damn things and make all paying customers comfy! I would really like to know how the airlines accomodated these overweight people 20 yrs ago cause REALLY the seats haven't gotten any bigger. Maybe the skinny people should have to by the extra seat if they are so worried about whose sitting next to them. Quite frankly I would rather be next to the pleasantly plump person than the skinny stuck up one who is going to bitch no matter how big you are.
