500 lbs (35 Stone) Passenger stranded at airport.

So, I just saw http://www.myfoxmemphis.com/story/23918871/family-of-500-pound-frenchman-stranded-at-airport and was curious of CD's opinion. Better yet, CD, do you think Airlines should make special accommodations for overweight passengers? The airline (British Airways) said it tried to find a solution to accommodate him, but couldn't find one. So, what's your opinion of this article and accommodation of overweight passengers?

(Side note: For anyone too lazy to read or click the link, the passenger was a Frenchman not American, so svck it Anti-American jokes. :frog: )

Should they? I don't know. Will they? Probably not. Replace several seats/customers for the sake of one occasional customer? Make an adjustment to every single plane? Unlikely.

EDIT: Oh noes, we'll just make jokes about the French being entitled; nobody enjoys laughing at France :tongue:.
