| dc.description.abstract | This paper discusses the pay-as-you-weigh approach to airline charging, which adopts passenger’s weight as a major determinant of a fare. It specifically investigates the economic justification of the model, discusses strength and weaknesses, evaluates various comments, and points out some potential options for implementation. The model rewards passengers who weight less than average and/or when they reduce weight, providing financial saving and improved health benefits. | en_US |
