I recall a TV show about Southwest Airlines (may have been others as well) but it was about drunks, fatties, and other airline issues. This was easily 10 years ago. But back then SWA would ID big'uns at the gate and force them to get an extra ticket or not fly.
Other than this instance, I doubt most airlines do that these days.
