On our trip back from Samoa (direct flight from Apia to Sydney) we had to divert to Fiji and refuel becasue the plane was overweight. Some of the people on that plane were HUGE and I am not talking overweight huge, I'm talking hands the size of dinner plates and bodies that would easily be 3 rugby players in one. As I said, they were not overweight, they were just big compared to what I consider 'big' in a western population. Perhaps that is why they are doing it? because they can make more money knowing that a large amount of their clientelle would be Samoan?
Just a thought!
I admit, I loled that it was a Samoan policy as well. Wonder how much they plan to charge their international rugby players?!
