Overweight Cat Causes Aeroflot To Strip Member Of Air Miles

Soumis
 
Aeroflot has stripped a passenger of no less than 400,000 miles because his cat was too fat to fly.

But bragging on Facebook turned out to be a cat-astrophe. Here’s how it went down. (simpleflying.com) Plus d'info...

8 kg is about 17 lbs. That's pretty good size cat. I can't imagine it fitting under a seat easily, even in business class. Of course the picture showed the cat in his lap. Which probably made all his seat mate unhappy, which is why Aeroflot had that weight limit in the first place. At least it's not a therapy peacock.

I was on a return flight from DFW to SYD last Friday. I was cramped next to a 200 kg man with rancid BO. I started saying prayers at the holding point! I had no idea how we'd be able to lift off!

Been there... Done That.... Once as a Non-Rev, I was seated between 2 Big huge guys that gave me less than 8" of seat and they already had the armrest up... UGH.. I was pissed... Until the FA told me that the Captain would like me to Ride in the Jump Seat... Let me tell you I jumped on that opportunity.... Got to the Cockpit and the Capt told me he heard I had a "Cramped" situation... LOL..

That is a close call and up to debate! Sit between 2 of those... you can put on headsets to null the kids, but you can't change that squeeze

As I keep saying F/B and social media will be the demise of many a person in the future including future politican's, CEO's, and even some people in our business.

Aeroflot is part of the Skyteam Alliance, so those miles might have been put to some good use.
