The weight of a path in a graph is defined to be the sum of degrees of its vertices in entire graph. It is proved that each plane triangulation of minimum degree 5 contains a path P5 on 5 vertices of weight at most 29, the bound being precise, and each plane triangulation of minimum degree 4 contains a path P4 on 4 vertices of weight at most 31.
