Woman on a Frontier Airline Flight Complains About Not Being Able to Fit in a Seat...
"Honestly, its discrimination"
https://www.msn.com/en-us/travel/new...a4a79880e&ei=7
Plus-size people and airlines have been having more frequent run-ins recently. This is because, over the years, airlines have found it more profitable to reduce the size of their seats. This way, airlines can accommodate more people per flight and make more money. Recent happenings have shown that this strategy may not continue for long.
In the tweet’s caption, the woman was allegedly quoted to have made a demand for a refund after bashing the airline. “I cannot get comfortable in any position in the next 3hrs,” she lamented. She ended by saying “I want a refund.”
One user said quite sarcastically, “Yeah, totally the fault of the people who need to try and float a 70,000-pound chunk of metal safely from one city to another with passengers on board and not the fault of the person adding an unnecessary 500 lbs.” Another comment read, “The plane wasn’t built for someone whose that size, so buy 2 seats, ma’am.”
A plus-size traveler, Jae’Lynn Chaney, has started a petition to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). The aim is to encourage the administration to make it mandatory for airlines to adopt seat policies that favor plus-size people. Among the demands of the petition, one request stands out, which is that airlines need to provide additional and accessible free seats to customers of size.
She believes that asking plus-size passengers to pay for additional seats is discriminatory as they didn’t choose their weight. We keep our fingers crossed as we await the decision of the FAA

You chose to eat enough to be that size, it's not discrimination, it's you poor life choices.

lol, I've never heard a news story of a huge bodybuilder btching about not fitting into a space...
She has a point, there's hella obese fuks in the USA they need a place to sit, but they should be charged extra since they take up more space, add more weight etc. If your luggage is too heavy or too large, you get charged extra, so it makes sense to charge based on size

Not everything is for everybody.
What next? will people insist on siting in the cockpit and sue because they cant?

People that size should be stored underneath with the luggage. They should get discounted tickets though since at that point they’re cargo.

Let that sink in.

Seriously, above a certain weight you should have to pay a premium. These fatties need to understand the rest of the world doesn't have to cater to their lack of discipline.

1:45 min flight. I made my displeasure known to the whales regarding their total disrespect of society.

How could the plane's bathroom even handle that? Imagine half the passengers and flight crew dying mid-flight due to such an inconceivable trauma.

Humans were not meant to be that large or heavy. 6"+ above 200 is normal. 5"+ but under 6" and 300-500+ doesn't work. Airline seats have always been "slim" but because when the standard came out people were just that - thin. If they changed everything on the plane to match today's society you'd take a plane that could fit 140+ people and shrink it down to 70. That means you'd need twice as many flights to shuttle around the current amount of people traveling and even then sometimes there aren't enough flights per day to handle that anyways. So, lose the fooking weight or buy an extra seat OR charter your own plane.
The world wasn't obese for 2,000 years. Why should everything change now? It's their choice what they shove in their mouths and how often. Stupid to call is discriminatory. That's self discrimination.
