Re: My Biggest Fear--Fitting My Butt in an Airplane Seat From: Beth (anonymous@obgyn.net) Fri, 9 Mar 2001 23:37:30 -0600 (CST) Messages sorted by: [ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ] Next message: Ellen: "Dr. Samuel Thatcher and other PCOS workshops at NYC Conference" Previous message: Sally: "Re: Holistic / Whole person healing: my success (kinda long)" In reply to: timber: "My Biggest Fear--Fitting My Butt in an Airplane Seat" Next in thread: Sonnet: "Airplane Seats: What's better, front or back?" Reply: Sonnet: "Airplane Seats: What's better, front or back?" Reply: timber: "Re: My Biggest Fear--Fitting My Butt in an Airplane Seat-THANKS" Some of the airplane seats are just ridiculous. I'm not overweight but my hubby is by about 130 pounds. Our last flight was on Delta. On the new plane with "leg room", I BARELY go the seat belt fastened. At that point I was (am LOL) 5'9" and almost 170, not heavy but towards the top of my weight range. The seatbelt should not have been even remotely tight, I literally had to extend it completely and suck it in! Hubby couldn't fasten his at all but refused to ask for an extension, just faked it. The seats were very narrow too so hubby "shared" what little of my seat and sons seat weren't being used. When a 50 pound child only has a couple of inches left on his seat belt, you know they're small. I think it was ridiculous and I sent a letter to Delta about it. The other planes were fine on Delta but this new one (brand new!) was the pits. Last time I checked people were "growing" not "shrinking" so I don't understand a new plane having this problem. The only thing you can do is request the seat you want and hope it doesn't get changed. Get to the aiport early and get your boarding pass asap so you don't lose it. Exit rows are sometimes a bit roomier as are seats in back of a "wall". Sorry to hear you had to sit next to such an ass! Good luck! -- Beth At Fri, 9 Mar 2001, timber wrote: > >My biggest fear in life is coming true. I have to go on a trip for work >& I have to fly.
