I love this idea. I sat behind a guy, bless his soul, who needed two seats in the RJ for himself. It's definitely more prevalent in America than elsewhere.
Hey, if the airlines are saving so much money by cutting down on all this bogus weight, share the wealth! They should dump all this saving back into the pockets of the employees who've sacrificed so much over the years.
In response to the captains' weight loss program: I think most of the pilots have lost weight over the years due to the fact that the paycuts put a choke hold on their food budget. You guys saved the company a load of money on weight reduction and didn't even know it!
Relax, forum flamers. It was my lame attempt at humor. LOL
