While I think this guy was probably being a primadonna, I do agree that if you are too big for the seat you should have to pay for two. I can't even begin to imagine how embarrassing and humiliating it would be to be told you have to buy two because you are so big, but like DubaiSis said, seats on domestic flights (I find international flights to be, on average, nice to the point of enjoyable, particularly on AirFrance) are tiny! Unfortunately, even if a person who is too large only takes a fraction of your seat, the seats are so small that that fraction makes a huge difference.
