Flying
hi Tanya,
I fly once or twice a month for my job. I make sure that I don't have a middle seat. The last time I flew, my waist was 46 inches and I didn't need a seat belt extender. It was never a problem asking for one - the flight attendants are very helpful.
You can get information about your seat on www.seatguru.com. You enter the airlines and type of aircraft and it shows you a diagram of the plane and indicates what seats are good or bad.
good luck,
Jayne
