What is the maximum weight ?

Just a bit curious, but what is the maximum weight of a passenger on a flight (before you have to pay for an extra seat) ???

Just wondering ..... not baggage, the person :) Lol.

I expect the thing is size rather than weight. If you are wide enough to need two seats you'll have to pay for them. I've been on little aircraft in the Pacific and Africa where they weight the passengers as well as their bags, but that's mostly so they can distribute the weight evenly.

that would make for an interesting flight if a group of sumo wrestlers and a troupe of ballet dancers turned up for the same flight jno.
