"Plus-size travelers demand better accommodations from airlines"

Plus-size influencer Jaelynn Chaney has started a petition demanding that the Federal Aviation Authority and airlines provide overweight flyers with as many free seats as they require to fly comfortably. She also wants airlines to refund overweight passengers for any extra seats they're forced to purchase when booking to accommodate their size. Chaney has documented her struggles flying, from showing her and her boyfriend being tightly packed into seats to showing what some passengers have said to her, including asking her if she bought two seats. She is asking for airlines to provide bigger seats or an extra free seat to larger passengers, a wheelchair-accessible bathroom on new planes, crew and TSA training, and refunds for passengers who purchased two seats.
