    Obviously, your ticket buys you an allotted space, being one chair worth.

    Planes can carry a variable amount of weight but space is static / not variable.

    Given that weight is distributed normally, air lines would be upsetting everyone aside from a few skinny people, just to discount fares for those skinny people.

    It doesn’t make any sense from a business / marketing perspective.
