Too Fat To Fly?

Should your dress or pant size matter when it comes to paying for an airline ticket? That is the big debate after an American flight attendant took a picture that was then posted to an aviation blog.

The picture shows a large man, sitting on the arm rest and spilling over into the aisle. We don't know, "the rest of the story", but it raises questions about obese passengers. Some airlines already charge extra if a person needs two seats, but American doesn't do that on a routine basis. American says it tries to be "flexible" with those who have a little extra weight. 

But what if the overweight passenger inconveniences others or worse puts other passengers in danger? Tell me what you think and share some of your experiences.
