      There’s already a solution for that. It’s called premium economy/business class.

      And if you’re gonna say “but that’s so much more expensive”, well guess what’s going to happen if you reduce how many pax can fit on an aircraft.

    No.

    Airlines should be regulated so the seats are larger and accommodate larger people.

    And if you managed to fly before airlines were deregulated, then you know that this was once the norm and isn’t too much to ask.

      You do know that tickets for those nice spacious old timey flights you’re dreaming of were upwards of thousands of dollars, adjusted for inflation, even for the cheapest seat on a domestic flight.

    Fat people shouldn’t have to pay extra on airplanes, the assholes who don’t check luggage should.

    Airlines should be required to have seats that accommodate all body types rather than be permitted to squeeze seats so close that even people of average size cannot sit comfortably. Believe it or not people don’t choose to be disabled.
