That's trifling, especially considering that most flights are usually empty. I do know that Southwest isn't the only airline that has this policy.
Now, if its a full/peak flight and someone just wants more room to lay out in, then I think they should pay for another seat.
In regards to the "girth" issue, I don't think they should pay. If they pay for another seat because all of their "girth" doesn't fit, does that mean that because I am so slim and petite that I only take up half a seat, do I get to pay half-price? Or will they be offering "kids" rates, because as of today, kids tickets are the same as adults and they take up WAY less room.
