American w/ Disabilities Act??? Give me a break! If that's the case, then according to recent studies and news reports, most of America is disabled.

Don't think that SWA's execs didn't factor that in when coming up with this hair-brained but revenue-generating policy. I mean, if you can get away with charging someone twice the fare, why wouldn't you? They do it to business travelers all the time!

I don't subscribe to the notion that you're buying a certain amount of "space" on an aircraft, either; I believe passengers are contracting for carriage--that is, transport of a person--from Point A to Point B.

Make no mistake, this "fat policy" is just a way to gouge customers.
