I think so - If someone is taking less fuel than someone else, why not? |

According to in-depth research I've just done, the average weight is 12.5 stone.
Well, at least I'm slightly closer to that one anyway! |

Hmmmmm actually I guess the only way to find out is using the old BMI thingy me bob although that wouldnt give us an average just a healthy weight......
The only way they can govern this is by asking "can you fit in to a plane seat comfortably or are you having to wedge yourself in?" I guess if the answer is wedge then you have to pay extra! |

| The BMI is a pile of crap...it takes no account of your body type. According to the BMI I am obese....yet I wear 34" waist trousers and have a 44" inch chest. Anybody who bodybuilds to any degree would also be considered obese. 10stone is average for a bloke? I would have though it would be average for an oompah-loompah maybe. |

Well I am not a body builder and therefore I have a normal BMI.
I guess the only conclusion we can get from this is that the whole fat tax thing will never work! |

The airlines allow for an amount of fuel for each passenger and charge accordingly - If everyone paid for the total weight of themselves and their luggage (including carry-on) then some people would pay less.
I'd pay more because I'm rubbish at packing and always have a heavy bag (no jokes, please) |

| I think I should be allowed to take extra luggage considering me plus my luggage only weighs the same as the average man on his own! I am genuinely expecting to one day have to put all my gear on cause I refuse to pay extra baggage costs. |
