Southwest Airlines -- 2 Tickets Please

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.

Have you ever been on a flight sitting next to someone who took up their seat and part of yours to the point that you could not even put the arm rest down between you? I have and I paid full fare for a seat that I could not fully occupy.
