As a large woman I do not like to tell my weight but when they have asked it has been face to face at the counter and discrete. Once out on the tarmac the pilot will assign seats to everyone to balance the load from side to side and front to back. He does this by eye. Hope this helps. Have a great trip!


We have flown many small planes, both regional and private charters and the staff was always discreet. (I learned to get over the embarrassment....) I suspect they probably know when someone isn't "accurate" in their own weight estimate. And yes, the pilots due visually evaluate people sometimes, other times we were told to sit wherever we wanted.
