Airline begins asking passengers to weigh in before flights for new study
LONDON -- An airline is asking passengers to weigh in before flights in a survey that will take place for nearly five weeks and involve more than 10,000 passengers.
Air New Zealand will be asking over 10,000 of is customers traveling internationally on their flights between May 29 and July 2 to weigh in before they travel on the airline.
“The survey is essential to the safe and efficient operation of the aircraft and is a Civil Aviation Authority requirement,” according to a statement from Air New Zealand announcing the survey.
"We weigh everything that goes on the aircraft from the cargo to the meals onboard, to the luggage in the hold,” Air New Zealand Load Control Improvement Specialist Alastair James explained. “For customers, crew and cabin bags, we use average weights, which we get from doing this survey."

This isn’t the first time the airline has done a similar survey.
“Customers on Air New Zealand's domestic network were weighed in 2021. Now that international travel is back up and running, it's time for international flyers to weigh in,” the airline said in their statement.
But there is one big caveat that should put the thousands of customers who are asked to weigh in at ease.
"We know stepping on the scales can be daunting. We want to reassure our customers there is no visible display anywhere. No one can see your weight -- not even us! It's completely anonymous," said James. "It's simple, it's voluntary, and by weighing in, you'll be helping us to fly you safely and efficiently, every time.""We know stepping on the scales can be daunting.

The planned survey will be taking place at the entrance to the gate lounge of certain Air New Zealand flights departing from Auckland International Airport beginning this past Monday.

Re: Are you OK with this ?
Will the airlines switch to a bigger plane if the overall total weight for the passengers/crews, luggages, and equipment exceed their safety? Or will they use that as a mean to charge overweight customers in the future?
It's bad enough that they place a weight/dimensions limit on your luggages and assess additional fees if you are over (on top of the regular luggage fees that you already paid). Nẽxt will they assess extra fees for overweight people as well?

Airline: I am sorry your travel profile said you weighed 120 pounds last time. However, now you weigh in at 130 so we need to assess an additional $20 for your ticket since it's $2/pound extra!

TuTu thông minh quá hà. Nói 1 là em hiểu tới 10 luôn! Yeah, chị giờ wfh nhiều hơn, ăn uống hơi cẩu thả nên giờ lên thêm 3lbs luôn đó cưng! Cở tuổi của chị mà lên cân thì khó xuống lắm, thêm chị lười đi gym nữa nên phải chịu thôi. hai tuần nay cố gắng ăn ít lại, mỗi ngày chỉ ăn 1 buổi thôi mà cái trọng lượng mắc dịch đó nó cứ nằm ỳ 1 chổ không thèm nhúc nhích nên...chịu thua! Kệ đi, Trời cho sao nhận vậy miễn sao vẫn khỏe và làm việc được là vui rồi.

chị Cuom, chị vẫn khỏe?Cuom wrote:Lan cũng ăn 1 bữa trong ngày thôi hả? Tui cũng vậy nè.
Đúng rồi, lúc này Lan ăn chỉ một buổi chiều thôi, qua 7 giờ tối là không dám ăn gì thêm nữa hết vì lo cho sức khỏe nhiều hơn là vì muốn xuống cân đó chị. Vậy mà Lan vẫn thấy cái cân nặng của mình nó không chịu xuống mới lạ đó chứ.
