Because the odds are that having paid for it they may never take up the return flight........ bit of heat and a dip in the pool...good chance of a heart attack. ;o)

On a serious note they are thinking of doing this. You will have, say, a maximum weight limit of 115kg which includes your body weight and luggage.

Fat ism is no better or worse than racism.

Each one can cause offense.

A fat bastard might be more offended by the term fat bastard than a Pakistani would be at being called a p***.

The two, along with sexism and ageism, are all on an equal footing.


If you ban Ron Atkinson for his comments, you must ban people who make similarly insulting comments about peoples weight.


Or ban neither (which is what I would be in favour of).

By the same token you might as well say:

why dont asians get searched more at airports?


Do you see my point?

absolute codswallop......next you'll be saying calling someone a "lazy" is like racism because it causes offence..... I take it your a signed up member of the PC brigade pee dubya.

You cannot choose your sex, age, skin colour, ethnicity but you can certainly choose to be fat.

What about people who are exceptionally tall and hence heavier than average

Should they be forced to pay more on a plane?
