Hi all - need some advice - if you have any to offer. I started a new job a couple months ago and I just found out I have to go out of town to some training, which will require me to get on an airplane. I am not afraid of flying - I am afraid I will get on the plane and not fit in the seat!! I have to fly with my boss and my boss' boss and all I can envision is walking down the isle to my seat and not being able to fit in it. I only have 18 days until I go and I am sick about what to do. Does anyone know the dimensions of a standard airline seat? Maybe I can find an equal width chair, just to get an idea if I will fit. I have even thought of driving instead (it would be about an 8 hour trip) but that would look strange to my boss.
Has anyone else been in this situation?
I flew about 8 years ago, and weighed about 8 lbs less than I do now, and I
just fit then. And I remember going through this same panic then. You'd have thought it would have motivated me to do something about this weight, but unfortunately, it didn't
Any thoughts would be appreciated...
