Fats on a plane, and how I avoid them... So I'm in a plane, about to push back.  It's a full flight and there are many fats. The last two to board were disgusting... Just ugh...   Anyway, I usually try to avoid fats by taking a the first middle seat (southwest) that has two humans on it.  I'm lucky I'm a skinny female because I'm only a little cramped. And I'd rather be a tad cramped for a few hours than have to sit next to a fat...  Those are my two cents.  How do you do it?
