"Travel Influencer Advocates for Inclusive Accommodations in Hotels"

Plus-size travel influencer Jaelynn Chaney, who previously demanded airlines refund overweight passengers for extra seats, is now calling on hotels to make accommodations for larger guests. In a video, Chaney requested spacious elevators and hallways, raised toilet seats, handheld shower heads, handrails on pools, sturdy chairs, stronger beds, size-inclusive bathrobes, and plus-size friendly towels. While some supported her demands, others criticized the feasibility and cost of implementing these changes.

She also believes airlines should have uniform policies to protect the rights and dignity of all passengers, regardless of size.
