As soon as flights make 'gordos' pay for their weight carried on board of a plane, they will do like a Popo, the boxer, lose a few of kilos before going to the airport. Undefeated WBO and WBA junior lightweight king, Acelino “Popo” Freitas is a Brazilian fighter who always makes the weight by losing two or three Kg just before the fights without losing his strength. Being, basically, punching above his weight. What we need is for the people head for the gym, make a diet to lose weight to pay less airfares. Once they discover that this is easy, and how better they look after losing the "excess luggage", they will start doing ti normally. For us, who fly cattle class, will be better not having the gordos in the same row. I was in Hua Hin beach and most of the people are Swedes and Finns. Boy are they big!!!
