PARIS - Air France has issued a directive instructing all of their ticket agents to charge obese passengers for two seats.
When asked what constitutes being 'obese' a representative for Air France replied that they have been instructed to look for little tell-tale signs; such as if the individual is holding some type of food item in his or her hand such as a pizza, a brisket, or a fully-cooked Butterball turkey.
The rep who chose not to reveal her name said that they will also look for condiment remnants such as mustard stains on the sleeves, dried ketchup on the upper lip, and salt and pepper shakers in either the shirt pocket or in purses.
When she was asked if there was a certain weight figure that they will be using, she replied that the airline's new 'poundage manual' list a figure of 400.
She did point out that it did not mean that if someone only weighs 397, that they would be exempt from purchasing two tickets. That decision will be left up strictly to the ticket agent.
She did point out that in the interest of fairness, anyone who is anorexic will only have to pay half price.
