Default Should fat people be charged more for aeroplane seats?

Absolutely Yes. After all ticket prices are based on how many seats the airline is able to sell to make the flight viable and make a profit. If a fat person takes up more than 1 seat, they can always pay for a second. It's nothing to do with discrimination, just pure and simple commercial economics - the airlines aren't charities.

Most fat people can fit in an aeroplane seat tbh, only the huge ones whose fat is actually bulging onto the other seats should have to pay.

If they take up more than one seat, of course.

We have to pay more for excess baggage, why the hell not for excess flab?

Of course. Fat people should have to pay more for everything in life, then they'd actually try to lose weight, so there'd be less fat people in the world and you wouldn't have to walk up the highstreet thinking ew at every other person you see.

And if they take up two seats definitely, although they should have to anyway.

They should fit wings to the fattest ones and use them as cargo planes for imported food. On landing at local airports they could regurgitate their stomach contents into a Edie Stobart truck.

I think Asda already do this

Fat people shouldn't be allowed on planes full stop, they snore, they smell and worse of all they sweat. I had to sit next to one of them on a fight to Faro and the beast wouldn't stop sweating.
Put them on a freighter or something

I have been unfortunate enough to sit next to someone who was really big.

I guess technically they could fit their ass in the seat, but their flab was actually squashing me. He managed to fasten his seatbelt after puffing and panting for about 5 minutes...and it MUST have hurt the way it was digging in. And yes, he smelt really bad, and also ate the whole time and kept farting. It was on a flight to America too...And I dont think it is very fair to expect someone to sit next to a person like that for like 10 hours or so. I literally had like half a seat and felt sick the whole time.

Then again, I prefer that to sitting next to someone who gets travel sick. I would literally have a breakdown if I had to sit next to someone who was vomiting

If they are taking up more than one seat, of course they should pay for the other one as well since they are using it.
