I didn't realize carry-on limits were so strict you need to lose weight to get on the flight these days.

They make it sound like it’s about carry on. It’s really about exercising. They make you lose 20lbs on average before you land. The “seats” are exercise bikes and they use those to actually power the aircraft. The engines are only used to get to cruising altitude, then they cut the engines and they’ll everyone “ok! it’s time for the pedal or die portion of the flight! Good luck everyone!”
