Today, I was forced to spend an extra $318 for another plane ticket to Dallas. The ticket wasn't for my daughter, my mom, or my sister, but for the quarter of my butt that apparently needs its own seat. FML

well you gotta feel sorry for the person who might have been sat next to you if you hadn't bought the ticket. They would only get 3/4 of a seat for their butt otherwise :P

YDI. Why should someone have to share their seat with you, fatass?

It's about time you fat bastards actually paid for the amount of space you occupy. When your fat rolls cover the arm rest we are supposed to share and dribbles over into my space, I'm getting cheated out of the space I bought.

Ugh, the infamous airplane armrest battle! That's when I'm very grateful that I have both lethally bony elbows and my carefully cultivated Ice Queen demeanor at my disposal. I think airlines also ought to charge you more if you carry on stinky food, hit on your seat mate, talk extra loud with your headphones on, or try to evangelize fellow passengers. Anyone getting trashed should be financially responsible for getting any and all seat mates equally trashed. Really, such tactlessness taxes would only be fair. Another idea would be either a soundproof baby-and-babymomma section, or another tax for not being liberal with the Dimetapp and/or children's Benadryl before boarding. Man, I should run for office! >.<

i'm not going to berate you for being overweight because that's rude and unnecessary. but if you physically need more than one seat to accomodate you, you need to buy two. otherwise the person booked into the seat next to you only gets half a seat to sit in.

Unfortunately you are paying per seat. Babies under the age of two may fight free. However, if you use it's infant carrier, you pay for an extra seat also. It may not sound fair but it makes sense.

Babies under the age of two may *fight* free? I'd pay to see that!

I have mixed feelings on this because when my brother and sister in-law (who are both overweight) flew recently, American Airlines charged them both for the extra seat because of their sizes and then put them in a 3 seat row... so they got charged for 4 seats but only got the 3.

wow that's really shady of them to do. I agree they should pay for an extra seat.,, only if they get to sit on it.

Whaaat?! That's very messed up. I'd be making my way up the ladder to get my complaint heard till I got a refund. That's just not right.

Guys.. don't blame him. What if the OP is OBESE? Otherwise it's not nice to call someone fat- listen. I learned that Karma is a bitch when you call someone fat. I gained 21 pounds in 2 months from depression that came out of no where. Luckily I worked that off. Just remember- Karma is a damn bitch when you do something bad. Aww that's so sad OP! I go to Paradise Bakery and buy a nice big ceasar salad! Atleat it's... healthy? It helps when you are on a diet. :D FYL

So what if OP is obese? Hell, technically I'm obese but I still fit in an airplane seat with plenty of room around me, and even if I didn't, I wouldn't expect not to have to pay for a second seat. When you're fat you either do something about it, accept it, or complain about it. OP has chosen to apparently only do the complaining.

Caesar salads are often pretty unhealthy. The dressing that goes on them has a lot of fat, and most restaurants put a ton of it on. "But I ate a salad today, so I'm being healthy! I think I'll go reward myself with some ice cream."
