its been shown time and again that many overweight people do not eat anymore than a skinny person....sometimes it is genetics...

but to the point of this woman, we Americans are LARGE people and the airlines have gotten away with making the seats smaller, leg space less, aisle's narrow as well...

and we'll pay and pay for that privilege to squeeze in...

I doubt this lawsuit will go anywhere, but at least its broaching the subject.

Fact: Most Americans are FAT people.

Eat healthy, exercise and you too can be in good shape, not LARGE or FAT.

Lifestyle is a CHOICE.

True, one reason I rarely fly anymore and I am not large but the leg space these days is a killer.
More to the point of this thread my wife USED to have a bad weight problem so much so that we took to buying 2 seats. Problem with that was that even though we would make sure the ticket agent knew we wanted 2 seats and it was not a mistake, when we got to the boarding gate we would tell the agents there that yes she had 2 seats. When we boarded the plane we would tell the ticket taker that she had 2 seats. Even with all that about half the time just before they closed the door we would see some standby passenger coming down the aisle headed for the empty seat.
