SOUTHWEST IS NUMBER ONE with ME!. This is not an attack on heavy people. My mother’s heavy. My sister’s heavy. They buy 2 seats. I had the opposite experience with Southwest 2 years ago. I had a 400 pound women in the middle seat and I leaned over into the isle as she took 1/3 my seat and squeezed the child by the window. The flight attendant said and did nothing. I'm sorry, but we're not talking about some $2.00 bus ride where you just change your seat. They are $200-$500 plane rides for 1-5 hour trips. I'd like to try to enjoy it with my laptop or DVD player. That ride from Chicago to Dallas was a horrible experience. I stopped flying Southwest because of that. But now I'M BACK! This is not discrimination. You're 400 pounds - you need 2 FREAKING SEATS! Stop being selfish and expecting the world to conform to you. You know when you need 2 seats. Get 2 seats. Southwest - I accept your apology. I will tell my boss to book Southwest from now on. Unfortunately this week I'm already flying Delta. But after that, you'll have my business. Money talks. Blogging walks.
