There is a better article in just crowd sourcing answers instead of posting a low quality tiktok. Please stop posting tiktok content.

Here's my changes airlines can do to make flying easier for passengers: 1- each seat get 1 overhead bin guaranteed. It's your rule, that space exists now, yet somehow there is always no room for the later passengers because people will still put 2 bag in there. 2- Eliminate the last 2 rows of seat and divide that space up so there is more legroom. Divide the lost revenue up among the other seats. I'll pay an extra $5-10 to be able to feel my legs. 3- Fix your schedules so that you actually depart on time. I'm not talking about weather related events. But when 80% of your flights are always delayed, and the weather is nice, it means you overbooked your routes. Cancel a couple routes until you get it fixed.

I would like to see regulation on minimum seat size. It's easy to say, "well just pay more for a better seat." That's not always a viable option. It's not like there is a full range of competition available to customers. You may only have a choice of a few airlines in your area. Some offer better seating options, some don't. Some only offer more comfortable seating in business and first class, but charge thousands more for those seats rather than having any mid-range upgrade option. Airlines keep shrinking the seats in economy class to try to offer the lowest price to the point that even an average-sized man is going to have his shoulders sticking into the adjoining seats. This issue isn't confined to just larger people. If there was a minimum standard size, then the playing field would be even as far as price. That might mean the price goes up a little, but I think most people would tolerate a slightly higher price in economy to not have to snuggle with a stranger for hours.
