I see nothing wrong with testing the arm rests...sorry...but plane tickets are so much money..I would be very upset if someone's BODY was spilling into my seat...

I agree, but if you are sitting next to family and they say that they do not mind, why should he have to pay for an extra seat when those seats are already paid for by his family. I would understand if this was a safety issue, but then why is only United doing this?

I am a thin, small person and when I fly I have experienced very large people squeezing into the seat next to me and their girth spilling onto my seat and ME! Last time I flew on AirTran, the experience was so awful that I have not flown since...more than 2 years. Please....airlines have to help those of us who are not obese. It is only fair.

OVERSIZED people.... you know who you are... The humiliation is coming. we pay for 1 person as we are only 1 person in size. I hate to be mean but you know who you are. most of you let yourself go to be this size... We did not make you that way. If you are the size of 2 people PAY that extra person you are hauling. as well.

So to settle this why don't any airline just come up with a plane with larger seats? to help out the larger size people.. It's a dollar thing!

Agreed. I think they (fatties) should have their own plane
