People need to pay extra for their bodily excess weight. I'm done being harassed to pay for a kg more in my baggage.
How is that just, when a person being overweight isn't of their doing ? (not saying this is the case for everyone, of course)
In what cases is it not of a person's own doing? Barring medical conditions that would make them exempt (such as hypothyroidism or antidepressants).
How is it different from having extra two kilograms of medical equipment in your bag?
