Thanks to best-selling obesity drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy from Novo Nordisk or Zepbound from Eli Lilly, U.S. airlines could save millions of dollars on jet fuel, Bloomberg <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-01-15/weight-loss-drugs-hold-promise-of-big-savings-for-us-airlines">reports</a>. Previously, for the sake of reducing the weight of airplanes, carriers excluded olives from salads, refused magazines and replaced the seats with ultra-thin.
