Altitude problem
Like jeepney drivers, airlines squeeze passengers into available seat space regardless of their size. Some discomforted passengers are not taking the one-size-fits-all seats sitting down. Airlines addressed the size issue by charging oversized passengers for two seats. Travel blogger and body-positive advocate Jae’lynn Chaney, 26, disagreed and called for a free second and third airplane seat for biggies if needed, News.com.au reported. Jae’lynn is also demanding that airlines refund larger passengers for extra seats they needed to purchase when booking to accommodate their size, according to News.com.au. Skinny passengers also complain of large seatmates who partly occupy their seats. A Continental Airline passenger from Ohio was assigned to a middle seat next to a 500-pounder and asked flight attendants for relief because her seatmate’s weight was on her and she could not bring down her armrest, Express reported. The flight attendants could not transfer either of them to a vacant seat so the “sandwiched” passenger endured an aching neck and shoulder throughout her very expensive flight. Meanwhile, Hainan Airlines’ issue is different. Its new weight requirement became a viral topic on social media as the company threatened to ground those who fail to comply. For those with a height of 5.1 feet, their weight should not exceed 48 kilograms, according to the company. “This is intended to advocate healthy living habits and maintain a good professional image and healthy physique,” Hainan Airlines told CNN. Incidentally, the weight rule does not apply to passengers but to flight attendants. The post Altitude problem appeared first on Daily Tribune......»»
