Paragraph 2
Passengers who volunteer to be weighed are stepping on weighing
at the departure
at Helsinki Airport. Finnair officials were
concerned about a customer backlash because weight is such a personal
. However, in the first week of the tests, over 1,000
had agreed to be weighed. The company said: "We hope to have a good
of volunteers, both business and leisure travellers, so that we can get the most
information possible for important balance
." It added: "Our customers have taken it really positively so far." An official said travellers could "rest assured" and have "
of mind" that their weight would not be linked to their personal
.
