Two tickets to Paradise - Southwest Airlines is now going to make fat people buy an extra fare if they can't fit between the armrests of their planes' all-tourist-class cabin seats. Look for there to be an uproar among those affected (and their admirers). I guess we won't see SWA flying back into SFO any time soon, since this policy would surely violate the city's notorious short and fat law. After all, this is the town that forced Jazzercise to reinstate an overweight instructor, ruling that displeasing aesthetics were not sufficient reason to bar the woman who could otherwise perform the routines. Fatties of the world can look on the bright side, though. Doesn't this mean they can get two meals with their flight?
