Booking two seats / extra seat for person or object (EXST, XTRASEAT)
A friend of mine is rather larger and will have difficulty being accomodated by an economy class seat.
She is due to take a UK to USA flight, then another cross-country flight in the USA (and then the same in reverse).
She cannot afford a business seat, and there is no way she's going to be accomodated by an economy seat.
Further, anyone who is seated next to her *will* have an unpleasant flight. My friend will need to overspill the seat significantly.
What is AA's policy? Are they likely to allow either booking two seats next to each other, with assurance from AA they will be alocated adjacent or AA blocking the seat next to my friend?
By the way - I'm aware this might sound a bit "off" - but I do worry about the safety of squeezing such a large lady into such a small space. I did enequire about using my own BA miles to upgrade her on AA, but apparently this isn't possible.
Advice for the larger traveller appreciated.
