    Just weigh and charge people with their baggage. Privacy and embarrassment about mass can be blamed on the bag.

          But the things that are priced when overweight are only checked bags, no? Or also carry on bags?

            Right now, yeah. But things could change if they’re considering weighing passengers. It makes sense to charge a fixed price for the staff, time, seat, and booking, and a variable price for the fuel (based on mass, distance, wind, and current fuel costs).

            Some passengers might have double my mass and should pay more. Children could cost a bit less this way too.
