Fupas should qualify as baggage.

I cannot wait for the day for ticket prices to be (weight + luggage) x price of gas. That may get a lot of shit so, your weight + luggage = Max X. You pay per pound/kg over. This way fatties can bring less and humans can being more.

edit: Math syntax (I should know better :/)

edit2: Even better, Standard price =250 lbs Max weight with luggage. $1/lb above that and save $0.25/lb below the limit.The flights will be healthy, attractive, and fit people flying locations and it becomes a high quality airline.

Clearly we need to start an airline FPH. Let's change the world

As a taller guy, I fully support this. I'd gladly pay a bit more if it means crucifying fats.

Can you imagine the tumblrlogic?

Can you just IMAGINE IT? Can you?

So we have a fat tax right now that only humans are paying, in fact, non-humans are getting discounts because of how the ticket prices are spread, we are subsidizing their flights, and by the virtue of sales tax, they aren't getting taxed on anything health related yet - and this is the only way they see, is to plunder from the working humans to pay for the dysfunctional non-humans.

So making it weight based is the way to stop the plunder, but just weight to hear the plunder-logic arguments about how it will be unfair.

Also, fuck you mallrats cunt for trying to pretend you were "able to put the armrests down". you fat cunt.

Could you imagine pay by weight in the US. Then we would actually have thin privilege. So awesome! I would dearly love to see this instituted on all forms of pay transportation. I mean it already happens when those round things own cars. They buy bigger vehicles and pay more for gas due to weight. This should be carried into every form of trans including buses and subways.

This is why Samoan Air's plan to charge by weight is genius. Every airline should adopt it.

Gotta start somewhere. I have high hopes for the Asian airlines. Their seats already don't fit if you have more than like a 34 in waist.

I've encountered this before too, these fat fucks are the same ones trying to pass suit cases off as carry ons because teehee and shit. Fat fucks are the worst airline passengers.

Fuck those people so fucking hard. If you are group 3 or 4 there is a high chance you will not get to bring you carry on because fucking pricks have brought not one, but sometimes TWO full sized suitcases and stashed them overhead. So they make you check your carry on. Oh ho ho that pisses me off to no end, however you can get around it if you carry a soft (non rolly or hard boxed bag) if it is a soft bag they will let you take it with you and remove someones hard bag as they can't force you to check breakables etc in a soft bag/duffle.

Humans do that too, and it's rude as fuck. It slows the whole process down.

Not as often as I've seen fatties do it. Most humans have normal sized carry ons.

This garbage infuriates me. I regularly see them walk on with a suitcase and then a gigantic purse/duffle bag that will never fit under a seat as their "personal item." Some carriers will allow people with no carry-on to board first. I've seen people with those freaking gigantic bags walk over there and every time I see those douchebags put their stuff in the overhead bins. I've been tempted to pull that crap out and throw it in their lap - you forgot your personal item!

"10 people will have to get off ... or 3 hamplanets." The inconsideration is unbelievable. To laugh and giggle while 2 jet turbines can't haul your arse is disgusting. We should just ban the overweight from flying. Walk; they can use the exercise.

I want to buy an airline, weigh the passengers, offer them a chance to buy two seats, and then stick the 6 fattest fucks who refuse in a row together. Then record the flight, put it on YouTube and laugh myself silly.

Thin privilege is being able to be physically lifted off the ground by 2-4 GE 110,000 HP engines.

To put that in perspective, a normal airline might have as much horsepower as 733 Lamborghini Aventadors all together.

Watch them all wobble off the plane. Then we'll have the plane incident when it wasn't even in motion (front going down)

Alternatively you could fly to somewhere international. People on international flights tend to be much slimmer (mass tourism places like Cancun being the exception). I've done the SCL-ATL flight five times over the past two years and recall seeing ONE noticeably overweight person in all those flights. No super obeasts in sight.

I fly recreationally. During flight school k was taught to assume everyone weighs 200lbs unless I know how hunch they weight. In a small fucking airplane 100-200lbs matters. Especially on a hot day at a higher altitude airport. You fucking die if the center of gravity is wrong. You fucking die if the plane won't climb. And you won't know it won't climb until you're out of ground effect.

As I seriously value my life, I would have been the first to volunteer to stay behind. I refuse to go down in a jet full of fatties. I'd have been so stressed out that any little bit of turbulence would have me shrieking in terror. I am not a nervous flyer at all under normal circumstances.

On the other hand, if you crash into the ocean, don't the fat fucks make useful floation devices?

But being obese doesn't affect anyone else, and everyone 60+ years ago was much curvier and healthier, so obviously those planes won't fly because of systemic, conspiratorial body shaming all the way from the bottom echelons up to the very manufacturing of aviation technology.

And everyone knows that planes from 50 years ago were just better. These newer jets are just too cheaply made to accommodate actual people.
