I mean, it is kind of optimal. Fat guys will experience constant, sweaty, skin-on-skin contact in a flight anyway, so placing them together reduces the total constant, sweaty, skin-on-skin contact experienced.
- spauldo 1y agoA fat guy next to a skinny person doesn't experience skin-on-skin contact. Which is why I do everything I can to get an aisle seat and hope the middle seat is empty or has a skinny person in it.
- 4gotunameagain 1y agoI'm a regular guy and I have experienced skin on skin contact when someone overweight is next to me on a plane. Why should I have to endure that ?
- spauldo 1y agoAsk the airline, they're the ones that choose narrower seats than the manufacturer's recommendations. I assume this was a budget flight or one of the airlines like American Eagle that service smaller airports?
- 4gotunameagain 1y agoHaving wider seats than necessary would mean less passengers per flight, ergo unnecessary ticket price increase.
- spauldo 1y agoNarrowing them further can allow even more people to fit, uncomfortably. The fact that you have any space at all is because larger people have to fit somewhere.
- 4gotunameagain 1y agoyeah sure, we should thank them.
