- jessaustin 8y ago“I regularly walked down the aisle and Mr. Prosser was not sat in an unnatural position for an economy seat...” The qualifier seems to have consumed the statement? Sure it was an unnatural position, but what did he expect he was in economy? I've flown several times sandwiched between two large people, and found it easy to sleep, encased in large warm cushions...
- DoofusOfDeath 8y agoI'm personally interested in this issue. I too have been forced into painful positions during long flights because the passenger next to me was too large to fit within his allotted width. I'll be curious to see if there's ANY amount of discomfort or undersized-seating that will trigger a court to rule in favor of a passenger.
- thrower123 8y agoMaybe I should sue the airlines for making me sit in seats that are inches shorter than either my shoulder frame or femur length. If I get an aisle seat and the stewardess really winds up with the drink cart, I can probably get some convincing bruises.
