Obese passengers weighed before flight…

 

A traveler has shared the mortifying moment that a fellow passenger was forced to step on a baggage scale before takeoff after confusion over her weight.

A clip detailing the humiliating measure was originally posted in March, but has amassed 1.6 million views on TikTok as viewers speculate whether the airline was discriminating against plus-size travelers.

“The whole airport trying to mind their own business as a woman is asked to step on the baggage scale because she claimed she was 130lbs,” the TikTok user @lilwessel wrote in the caption.

She added, “It’s a tiny plane so they needed our weight to take off for safety reasons.”

In the accompanying five-second footage, shot at an undisclosed airport, the passenger in question can be seen standing on the luggage scale in full view of fellow flyers.
