You wouldn't think it would be okay for some skinny dude to just lay over on you cause he felt like it. Why should I have to put up with some guy leaning over me just cause he chosen to chronically overeat and not get enough exercise his whole life.
Again if someone wants to ruin themselves with excess booze, tobacco or food that is their business and I don't suppose it is really any big deal to me beyond normal human compassion for their plight. However when they can't stand up straight and fall all over everyone because they are drunk or they can't contain themselves into the space they have purchased for a trip then the rights of others come into play as well.
If the airline chooses to allow the person to wait until the end of boarding and then try to accommodate the fat guy by trying to organize two seats together then bully for them. However, if they have sold every seat on the plane and they sold one next to ME to a person who for ANY reason can't contain themselves to it then I expect them to move THE OTHER GUY out of my purchased space and settle the matter with him.
I do not agree. The airline is responsible and it is not costing you one dime extra. If you have a beef, take it up with the airline, after all, they took that fat guys money, right?. But of course if the government runs the airline, they will make sure that your gripe is accomodated and fat folks will not get healthcare or a plane ticket. Man, won’t that make you feel all better?
Geesh
