A popular plus-size influencer Jaelynn Chaney in a TikTok video asked hotels worldwide to make changes to better accommodate overweight guests and be more inclusive.
She's known for previously advocating for airlines to provide extra seats for larger passengers and now wants to make travel easier for people of all body types.
In her video, Jaelynn Chaney made several requests. She asked hotels to make hallways and elevators wider so that larger individuals and those using mobility aids can move around comfortably.
She also suggested raising toilet seats and adding handheld shower heads in each room to make it easier for bigger-bodied people.
Chaney recommended that hotels have size-inclusive bathrooms that can accommodate people up to size 6X and beyond. She also wanted handrails in pools and sturdier, wider chairs by the pool and in lounges so that larger guests can relax comfortably.
@jaebaeofficial 🏨 Embracing Inclusivity in Hospitality 🌟 Creating a space where every guest feels valued and comfortable is essential. Size-inclusive hotel amenities are more than just accommodations – they're a statement of respect for diverse needs and body types. From spacious chairs to thoughtful bathroom facilities, every detail matters. Elevators, pool areas, and dining spaces should be designed to ensure ease of movement and relaxation. Let's make travel truly accessible and welcoming for travelers of all sizes and abilities. 💙 • • • #InclusiveHospitality #TravelWithComfort #RespectAndDiversity #PlusSizeTravel #PlusSizeFriendly #InclusiveTravel #AccessibleTravel #SizeFriendly #TravelInclusivity #Fyp ♬ Good Vibes - Rerewrpd
