Plane seats are not the most comfortable for anybody, no matter what your size.

But one woman has claimed that she's so curvy, that even buying two plane seats doesn't help her predicament. Gracie, 26, is a model who frequently posts on social media, showing off her unique figure, and she even demonstrated herself sitting over two plane seats - saying she just cannot get comfortable.

@graciebon urged airlines to "make their seats bigger" in an Instagram video, because "it's 2024, and bodies are changing". In the caption of her video, she asked people to give her an "actual solution" to sitting on a plane comfortably, rather than making rude comments.

Gracie made a response video to a comment she received on another of her videos, where someone angrily penned: "It's your fault, buy two seats and keep it moving", but she explained that two seats simply didn't help her predicament. She said: "Airplanes are too small for big people. It's 2024, bodies are changing, so planes should too. I won't lose my butt to fit on a plane, so give me another solution, or just make the seats bigger."

Gracie also stated it "wasn't her fault" she has a big bum, sharing: "Airplanes should have bigger seats. So today I had a flight and even if I was flying in first class, I couldn't fit on the airplane. So this is a petition for all the airlines so big girls like me can fly." But in the comments, for every comment she gets praising her, she receives comments questioning what she says.

Someone wrote: "I can't stand anyone who complains about aeroplane space. Like you have no idea how any of it works nobody is gonna change it for you. Lose the entitlement." Others questioned why she was complaining when she'd had surgery to achieve her ultra-curvy look. "You chose the way your body looks", another fumed.
