So really though by that logic I should be able to have someone sit on my lap and only pay for one seat right?

Depends what the weight limit would be. Would you want to be a 200 lbr and another 200 lbr sitting atop of you?There has to be some limits.:rolleyes:

Jumbo butts pay extra, and by the same token, if you wanna be on the bottom of a pile of two hundred pound butts ( and not bitch) you should get a discount. Babies, however become projectiles in the event of an emergency and should be secured in their own seats.

Q that's something that I really don't know and that is babies. Are they required to get a seat for the child for that very good reason? BD:confused:

I know for really little babies you don't have to pay, but I'm not sure if they just give the seat to a baby or if the mom has to carry it on her lap.
I did see a program on TV and some flight attendants were really squaking about how dangerous it is to have an unrestrained baby, especially if the plane hits bad turbulence. If the plane hits an air pocket and drops suddenly all the people hit the ceiling, imagine what that would do to a baby. They were trying to get the legislation changed...but I don't know if it ever happened.

The baby flies free, if in mommy's arms. If you bring a carrier (car seat), you have to pay for a seat. Few airlines supply a carrier.

Prof is right about the baby seats/arms thing. WE flew x-country & paid for 2 adults only. And, if the plane goes down, it doesn't matter if baby is in moms arms or not-all of the passengers are dead anyway.

Now we know why she never came back. I'm not sure I could stomach a second episode of Gonz's butt either.
