    It's crazy, but sooner or later...
    Nowadays "big" people pay double seat to travel (basketball players, for instance) (Do you remember Hugo from Lost 1st. season? He had to pay double, due to his volume)
    What would it happens in case of turbulence? Perhaps they give us a helmet...(paying for it of course) :)

    You're absolutely right. Who knows what the future holds? If Ryanair is allowed to do this, I'm afraid that planes will turn into rollercoasters!!

Big Brother, the thought police, the two minutes’ hate, doublethink, unperson, 2+2=5 and the ministry of truth.

"It was a bright cold day in April," goes the first line of 1984, "and the clocks were striking thirteen" George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four opening sentence. Another 35 years have elapsed since then, and Nineteen Eighty-Four remains the book we turn to when truth is mutilated, when language is distorted, when power is abused, when we want to know how bad things can get. Nothing but the truth: the legacy of George Orwell’s Nineteen Eighty-Four   (The Guardian)
