The Hollywood film director Kevin Smith has launched a blistering attack on an airline which kicked him off a plane for being “too fat”. Smith, 39, the director of films including Chasing Amy, Dogma, and Clerks, had purchased two tickets to comply with Southwest Airlines policy that requires larger passengers to buy two seats. He then decided to go standby for an earlier flight and was seated on a plane on which there was only one seat left. He was then ejected from the plane. Southwest’s “Customer of Size” policy requires that travellers must be able to fit safely and comfortably in one seat. [Daily Telegraph]
