The politically incorrect, but simple, solution is staring you right in the face at the counter: Weigh people AND bags together, and charge accordingly. Go over a certain limit, and you have to buy two seats.

Hi.
What about all the suvs, vans, and large trucks purchased and driven by and for the belligerant gluttonous egotists who populate the region between Mexico and Canada? Isn't that another cost of weight gain. Read recently that the average American man has gained about 30 pounds over the last 30 or 40 years or so from the low 160s to the low 190s.
