Ms Scafe, who weighs 160kg, told The Cairns Post that Jetstar employees asked her to pay for an extra seat on a recent trip, after previously telling her she would not have to worry.

She said the cut-price carrier, which has previously used overweight comedian Magda Szubanski as the face of the airline, in an ad campaign, had made a further mistake by booking her two seats that were not even next to each other.

Jetstar corporate affairs general manager Simon Westaway conceded there was a problem with booking Ms Scafe's seats separately but said it was policy to ask her to pay for both seats
