Question

Do airlines really charge larger people for two seats if they want to fly?

Answer 1

Yes they do if their size means they need two seats.

Answer 2

As a matter of fact.....Yes they do, and since they must pay for 2 seats it ends up being more cost efficient to just pay for 1st class....seats are bigger and ya get more goodies..LOL No jokes...I have many family members that fly this way......We're POLYNESIAN...

Answer 3

yes, and it should be that way (frequent flier)

Answer 4

Yes it really just depends on the size of the person

Answer 5

Well that would be a bit mean, but they can't give away too seats for the price of one - What about all the couples who had too pay for two seats...

I'm not 100% sure, but I would imagine certain airlines would charge them for two seats, whereas some may let them have two if they are physically disabled/Need two seats...

Hope this helps ^_^

Answer 6

lmao that be F ed up

Answer 7

Yes, and they've been getting increasingly strict with the rising cost of fuel.The more weight on the plane, the less fuel efficient it is. Additionally not fair to another full fare paying passenger to lose seat/leg room due to another person's obesity.
