I totally agree with that!!! Why should we pay excess baggage for our snowboard and kit when lardy over there gets 2 seats for the price of one!

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.
