11 Moments When Plus-Size Customers Spoke Out — and Faced The Internet’s Wrath

8. Flying Private Is The Solution

For the third time, Gracie Bon is standing up for what she believes is right. After campaigning for bigger seats on aircrafts, the plus-size model said she was now banned from a few select airlines . But to her, this wasn’t a problem as she’s now decided to fly with her own private jet. “Some airlines banned me so this is how I have to travel,” Gracie said in a video showcasing her experience flying privately. “Everytime I travel, I used to buy two or three seats. So I started a campaign requesting bigger seats and they didn’t like it. Now flying private is my only solution,” later saying that being banned was the “best thing” to ever happen to her. “Is flying private the solution for big girls like me?” she asked.
