OK everyone! I am curious as to know just what is the Legal situation in the scenario denoted below.
ie; You are an 'average sized' individual, and in this I mean you are
NOT deemed by any stretch of the imagination and/or/ Legal definition of the words
'obese.'
Through ignorance/casual happenstance/whatever, you find yourself seated in the middle seat between two individuals who could easily be described as 'morbidly obese,' or to put it bluntly, lardarses, fatties or any other epithet that springs to your mind!
What are your rights if you choose to refuse to take the seat allocated to you because of the obvious discomfort caused by the two obese individuals, and what is the Airline legally obliged to do to rectify the situation.
FWIW; Stuffed if I would tolerate being sandwiched between two people fitting the 'morbidly obese' category, at any time under any circumstances.
