There are wider seats - they are called first class. This man knew he was grossly obese, but decided to fly even though he knew by buying only one seat he would intrude on the adjacent seat. Could we say self-centered? The airlines should make clear on-line and elsewhere, that if you exceed the width of the seat, you will pay for an extra seat. Why should everyone else pay for the extra cost of a government mandated wider seat, when the obese person is the problem?
