Official Complaint.

Thu Jan 23, 2014 12:47 pm



Dear Jetstar,

Do you like riddles? I do, that’s why I’m starting this letter with one. What weighs more than a Suzuki Swift, less than a Hummer and smells like the decaying anus of a deceased homeless man? No idea? How about, what measures food portions in kilograms and has the personal hygiene of a French prostitute? Still nothing? Right, one more try. What’s fat as f**k, stinks like shit and should be forced to purchase two seats on a Jetstar flight? That’s right, it’s the man I sat next to under on my flight from Perth to Sydney yesterday.

As I boarded the plane, I mentally high-fived myself for paying the additional $25 for an emergency seat. I was imagining all that extra room, when I was suddenly distracted by what appeared to be an infant hippopotamus located halfway down the aisle. As I got closer, I was relieved to see that it wasn’t a dangerous semi-aquatic African mammal, but a morbidly obese human being. However, this relief was short-lived when I realised that my seat was located somewhere underneath him.

Soon after I managed to burrow into my seat, I caught what was to be the first of numerous fetid whiffs of body odour. His scent possessed hints of blue cheese and Mumbai slum, with nuances of sweaty flesh and human faeces sprayed with cologne - Eau No. Considering I was visibly under duress, I found it strange that none of the cabin crew offered me another seat. To be fair, it’s entirely possible that none of them actually saw me. Perhaps this photo will jog their memories.

Pinned to my seat by a fleshy boulder, I started preparing for a 127 Hours-like escape. Thankfully though, the beast moved slightly to his left, which allowed me to stand up, walk to the back of the plane and politely ask the cabin crew to be seated elsewhere. I didn’t catch the names of the three flight attendants, but for the purpose of this letter, I’ll call them: Chatty 1, Chatty 2 and Giggly (I’ve given them all the same surname - Couldnotgiveashit). After my request, Chatty 1 and Chatty 2 continued their conversation, presumably about how shit they are at their jobs, and Giggly, well, she just giggled. I then asked if I could sit in one of the six vacant seats at the back of the aircraft, to whichGiggly responded, “hehehe, they’re for crew only, hehehe“. I think Giggly may be suffering from some form of mental impairment.

I tried to relocate myself without the assistance of the Couldnotgiveashit triplets, but unfortunately everyone with a row to themselves was now lying down. It was then I realised that my fate was sealed. I made my way back to Jabba the Hutt and spent the remainder of the flight smothered in side-boob and cellulite, taking shallow breaths to avoid noxious gas poisoning. Just before landing, I revisited the back of the plane to use the toilet. You could imagine my surprise when I saw both “crew only” rows occupied by non-crew members. I can only assume Giggly let them sit there after she forgot who she was and why she’s flying on a big, shiny metal thing in the sky.

Imagine going out for dinner and a movie, only to have your night ruined by a fat mess who eats half your meal then blocks 50% of the screen. Isn’t that exactly the same as having someone who can’t control their calorie intake occupying half your seat on a flight? Of course it is, so that’s why I’m demanding a full refund of my ticket, including the $25 for an emergency row seat.

I’m also looking to be compensated for the physical pain and mental suffering caused by being enveloped in human blubber for four hours. My lower back is in agony and I had to type this letter one-handed as I’m yet to regain full use of my left side. If I don’t recover completely, I’ll have to say goodbye to my lifelong dream of becoming Air Guitar World Champion. If that occurs, you will pay.

To discuss my generous compensation package, email me at: [Redacted], or tweet me at: @RichWisken

No regards,

Rich Wisken.

I read the 1st two paragraphs on my lunch break in the office and always laughed out loud... I don't think people in my office should be laughing at anything, nevermind a complaint letter about someone fat... :oops:

I can't wait to read the rest of this later :laughing5:

Some airlines don't even allow people of that size to travel. It could of been worse though, he could of claimed the middle seat!
People really shouldn't be judging Jabba the Hut wanting a vacation :old:

I'd like them to tell David Haye and the Klitscko's they're getting charged more for being overweight. I'd like them to tell the New Zealand and Samoan rugby teams as well.

:lol:

Most idiotic idea ever. Common sense is 'if you overflow one seat then you buy two seats'. If you buy one ticket and then board the plane and you are overflowing your seat in the preflight checks and you are asked to pay a surplus charge for an extra seat then you should either have to pay or be removed from plane.

For example, I weigh around 17 and a half stone but I'm a mixture of both muscle and fat and fit in a standard plane seat fine with no issues whatsoever. Why should people like myself be penalised for weight training as muscle weighs more than fat? Why should athletes who bulk up be penalised for this as well?

If you are this big that you overflow into the trolley aisle or another seat and you've not bought 2 seats upfront then the on plane charge should be higher. This would mean those who need 2 seats would book 2 seats rather than get hit with the charges on the plane. Its no different to people who pay for train tickets. They could risk it and a lot do but most just pay to avoid paying the higher end fee on the train if they're caught.

Other people should not have to pay for a persons negligence and disregard/disrespect of other people. Maybe really skinny people should pay a charge as well for not using the full allocation of a seat.

:lol:

The economy would crash. The vast majority of people who fly are overweight businessmen like Daya or women from the Valleys with massive breasts going to Magaluf to be naughty.
