I heard this as well. I think it makes perfect sense and I''m surprised they haven't done it much earlier. Airline seats aren't all that wide. If you are large enough to occupy two seats, you should pay for two seats. The problem is I wonder how they will handle this at the time of boarding. If you are obese and bought one ticket, what are they going to say when the plane is loading and the poor guy who has the seat next to you can't sit down? It is going to be an awkward situation to deal with. Does anyone know how they have been handling those cases up until now?
