    To solve the problem is easy ,just make bigger seats HaHaHa .
    How crazy to think up such an idea to charge people.--------
    They will loose many customers if they did.-------- I suppose.
    Put a fat person to sit with a thin person that should balance out I should imagine.-----------------------------------O.A.P.

    brilliant idea obesity is self inflicted thus they have not excuses not to pay for the extra weight im sure if i took a heavy bag onboard id be charged more because I PUT THE WEIGHT IN! which is fair enough,
    it should be done on a total weight scale yourself and bag(s) that way everyone pays for what they've brought
