Someone else posted a link to Derrie-Air on another thread. Do you suppose they fly by the seat of their pants? I imagine their planes are all wide bodies!

I like this idea.... At $1.40/lb. I'd only have to pay $175! As a smaller person who always gets sandwiched between heavier people I think this makes sense.... NO PM'S PLEASE!!! I fly out of Philly so I know who gets on those planes...
You crack me up Margo!!

Good incentive to go on a diet
Not fair to tall people.
I can see the bad news: "Derrie-Air responsible for rise in eating disorders"
