Toss him out.
Right. I’m a big guy and need a seat belt extender. I already know the emergency exit row is off limits for me. I try my best to do a first class upgrade for comfort, but sometimes have to settle for coach. There, I try to get an aisle seat so I can pull up the aisle armrest to minimize discomfort to my middle seat “buddy”. But this was a safety issue and the airline had every right to tell her to move.
I’ve also had to move on small planes when they look to distribute the weight in the cabin. In those cases, I have been moved forward, not backward in the plane.
Oh. The loadmaster didn’t want the plane to go into a nosedive
Women have to fulfill ALL the below requirements:
*(breathing optional)
Yes. Weight and Balance are definitely a factor. But 1, I seriously doubt if one overweight passenger affects it that much on a big jet. And 2, If W&B truly are a concern, she belongs right amidships. I’ve a hunch a flight attendant was in a bitchy mood.
If she jumped onto the emergency inflatable exit ramp she would have popped it. Best that she be last off in the event of an emergency.
About 20 years ago we had some retards at MIA load a DC-8 cargo jet, they failed to strap the load down properly.
On takeoff, the load shifted to the back and the plane crashed tail first just beyond the runway, killing the crew and a guy on the ground.
Some Flight Attendants are real pieces of work these days.
“Apparently she was originally seated in an exit row.
Unfortunately, she might block passengers trying to exit.
I am starting to worry about your health, should something happen, like her squeezing the life out of you in a hug, no paramedics would be able to get her off of you to resuscitate you in time
Bingo. She could not fit thru emergency exit. Seat belt had nothing to do with it—Delta did not want to make known that her size was a hazard.
Laz... Don’t forget to take your emergency oxygen on your date!!!
Don't you worry. I use a scuba suit with extra air tanks, and an emergency beacon that broadcasts GPS of my location.
“Women have to fulfill ALL the below requirements:
Have a cha-cha-nooky-snu-snu.
Be breathing.*

Well! That rules out at least 42 genders!!
You are bad Laz ...
The laws of physics doesn’t care about her feelings. I guess she can just blame the big, bad universe.
I see you were a Boy Scout - Always come prepared
I once saw an airline crew move people to seats on the other side of the plane in order to balance such a behemoth out. . . The pilot said it would be dangerous fir everyone if the weight distribution wasn’t brought into better balance. Fortunately, there were sufficient sears available
Pardon me boy, is that the Chattanooga Choo Choo?
Ask the people seated next her if she is too big. They probably breathed a sigh of relief, after they started breathing again.
A jet isn’t a Teeter Todder.........
