A COURT has ordered Air France to compensate a passenger after he was forced to cough up more money for an extra seat due to his size.
Airline staff for a flight from New Delhi to Paris intercepted the 170kg passenger and said that because the flight was full, he would have to pay more for another seat to ensure breathing space. He said he felt humiliated as they measured his size in front of other passengers. The court ordered Air France to pay 8,000 euros in damages and reimburse the money the man paid for the extra seat.
