Being well over 6ft means that i'm naturally heavier than a 5ft something and generally struggle to fit within average size seating on aircraft. My issue is that of length rather than width.
I do what I can by getting an aisle seat, but its not exactly comfortable having knees wedged under my chin as the gap between seats as tiny and upgrades arent cheap.
Should you really penalize people because of their genetics?
- byrneseyeview 17y agoShould you really penalize people because of their genetics? You're already rewarded based on your genetics. (You can afford to fly more if you're genetically smart, and not, say, genetically a squirrel.) And since weight imposes a cost, it's just a question of whether that cost is borne by the people who cause it (heavy people who choose to fly) or by everyone.
- catch23 17y agoBig people have to eat more too, so they spend more on food. Isn't that penalizing people based on their size too? There is a plus side though, if you have a family with small kids, the cost of the flight might only come out to be a 2-person cost.
