I once had that big Cheff from MSY on board, the guy with the cooking TV show back in the '80's, Prudhome? or something like that? Anyway, he was as wide as he was tall, but he had bought two first class seats.
He had to ride an electric cart to the boarding door (could not walk, too heavy) and I had to pull the armrest block (727) out from between the two first class seats so he would fit there, in the middle of the two, and we had to use two seat belt extensions, no joke. But at least he knew he was huge and paid for two first class seats, so no problems.
I don't know how some of these NFL Lineman size guys expect to fit in Coach, all in One seat! Did I read that somebody (SWA?) charges for two seats if you are over 300lbs?
If airlines (not SWA) are going to charge you for checked baggs "due to the weight", maybe they should start weighing the pax too!
Now, where did I put my salad...?
