Having once been a victim of a person in the next seat who came down the aisle asking the stewardess for a belt extender and who flipped up the armrest so he could rub thighs with me, I have no problem with the new rules.

In fact, they should allow everyone 220 pounds, which could be split between passenger, carry on, and checked. If someone went over 220, they’d buy a second seat and get a 440 lb allowance.

Weight restrictions can be tricky....I weigh that but absolutely don’t encroach other seats. My problem is being tall over 6’3”......I’d say put the restriction where it really counts.....at the wide part - the hips....

Men don’t have to be fat or wide to weigh 220.

Weigh a student athlete sometime. Or the young men in our military.

220 lbs? i know several men who are 220lbs., close to 220lbs., or more than 220lbs. who would not need another seat...
