Obese flyers to pay more

欧航空公司启征'肥胖税'



Fat people who are unable to squeeze into a single plane seat will have to pay nearly double to fly with Air France-KLM, the company said Tuesday. It will charge extra-large flyers 75% of the cost of a 2nd seat on top of the full price for the first for "safety" reasons, a company spokeswoman said. The new measure will apply for tickets booked after February 1 for all flights from April 1 this year.

法航-荷航集团19日表示，挤不进一个单人座位的肥胖人士，乘机将付原价的近双倍价钱。该航空公司发言人称，收取"肥胖税"是出于"安全"考虑，"超大号"乘客将需在全价购买单张机票的基础上，额外缴纳原机票价格75%的费用。旅客从2月1日起预定4月1日以后的机票，将执行这项新规。
