My family relations on other side of the country are polite, but a little chilly these days. In addition, I have ongoing health issues that have made air travel, hiking through an airport exhausting and not something I look forward to.

So I don’t expect to be hopping onto any planes in the next few years. All for the best if; worst case scenario, each passenger is ‘requested’ to step onto a giant Meat Scale, in full view of the public. I can just see that big black needle swooshing around from 1 lb, way, way past 200lbs.

Maybe they should build a big box, like the ones they test carry-on luggage with. If you can cram yourself into it, you’re good to fly.

“worst case scenario, each passenger is ‘requested’ to step onto a giant Meat Scale, in full view of the public.“

Remember that chrome plated steel rack they had to see if your carry-on luggage would fit? How about one for fat butts? Your ticket is actually for about 17” of space on the airplane. You don’t fit? Buy another space.
