Southwest Airlines is offering plus-size passengers who have difficulty sitting comfortably in their seats the option to get an extra seat for free, if one is available. Passengers needing more space are advised to book two seats, and if there are empty seats on the plane, they will receive a refund for one of their two seats. This policy has been in place for over 30 years and aims to meet the seating needs of customers while ensuring comfort and safety for everyone onboard.
