Southwest Airlines already has a policy where tall passengers can buy an extra seat or request an extra seat when they check in. With the new rules, tall passengers must book an extra seat, otherwise they may be denied boarding the flight. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Passengers can now get a refund for the extra seat they paid for if the flight is not fully booked, something that will also be possible when the new rules come into effect. People who cannot lower both armrests of their seat and\/or whose body extends noticeably beyond the limits of the seat are considered by Southwest Airlines as large passengers, what they call \u201dCustomers of size\u201d. The airline\u2019s new rules for these passengers will come into effect on January 27, 2026.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Source: thick.se <a href=\"https:\/\/support.southwest.com\/helpcenter\/s\/article\/extra-seat-policy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">support.southwest.com<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Det amerikanska flygbolaget Southwest Airlines kommer n\u00e4sta \u00e5r att kr\u00e4va att storv\u00e4xta passagerare bokar och betalar f\u00f6r ett extra s\u00e4te om de vill \u00e5ka med p\u00e5 flygbolagets flygplan.Southwest Airlines har redan idag en policy d\u00e4r storv\u00e4xta kan k\u00f6pa till ett s\u00e4te eller beg\u00e4ra ett extra s\u00e4te n\u00e4r de checkar in.
