Fat and tall travellers unite

Tall travellers spoke out against extra charges being levied by airlines for passengers that don't fit the norm.

The UK's tallest travellers have rallied in support of the world's podgiest passengers against so called body "discrimination" by airlines.

Following the recent poll on travel site Skyscanner where 76 per cent of people voted in favour of a "fat tax" being charged for passengers who cannot safely fit into a single seat, Skyscanner has been inundated with e-mails from Britain's lofty air passengers, who have expressed solidarity with overweight travellers against "size discrimination" by airlines.
