They don't.

Your conspiracy theory about weighing passengers does not work with travellers like me.

I go to security, airport lounge and then catch the bus to the plane. End of.

LOL, it isn't a conspiracy theory !!!!!!!!

I don't mean as to whether you are weighed or not . 

Even if I was wrong about that , it wouldn't make it a "conspiracy theory" .

   You are using the words in the wrong place .

A person being wrong about something ISNT a conspiracy theory!!!!!!!

    They have weighing machines in front of the check in desk , so when you check in they can see how much you weigh

I have live here for more than 20 years. Flown 100's of times. Never been weighed.

   All the peoples weights are added together at the end of the check-ins , that's why fat people are sometimes removed from the flights before take-off

That must be why they seat my wife aft of the wings while I’m seated over the wings…  


…. They mention balance, I always figured they were referring to my wife’s mental state & giving her a break from sitting next to me !!! ????….

…. They weren’t saying balance, they were saying ballast… 

a bitter pill to swallow getting on an A380….  ????

You should check out the floor scales when stepping out of the lounge… 

… they also budget your food intake based on weight differential… 

 

Drink & eat too much???…. Ever been re-issued with a  new boarding pass at the gate check ?

 

it’s all about aircraft trim…. ????????????????????

You will have to pay 600 Baht

If the weight of handheld luggage would really matter for the planes balance, fat terrorists would just board as a team and midflight rise from their seats simultaniously, and move to one side of the cabin to bring down the plane. No weapons needed.
Damn, now i gave them the idea . . .

Having worked in the aviation industry for over 35 years, you comment is total bullsh!t.

Standard weights are use for pax on all/most airlines around the world. 

Agree, I'm also former airline worker, i.e. educated in planning & navigation and C/D theory...:thumbsup:
