The plus-size influencer, who previously demanded airlines provide extra seats for larger passengers, is now asking hotels around the world to accommodate overweight guests, including making hallways wider. We are asking you to make many changes to improve it.
in Video posted on her TikTok last monthJaylin Cheney listed several ways hotels can create “size-inclusive” amenities.
She said she was “on a mission to revolutionize the travel industry and make it a more accessible, accepting, and accepting place for everyone,” adding, “The needs of plus-size travelers are “It’s just as important as the travellers,” he added.
“We deserve an environment that respects our needs and the diversity of our bodies,” Cheney said.
Among her many requests was to “build an elevator and hallway.” [more] It is spacious enough to allow for easy movement even for large people or those using mobility devices. ”
Cheney also suggested hotels raise toilet seats and install handheld shower heads in each room to make it easier for larger people to wash.
“Hotels should provide bathrooms that are spacious,” she said in the video. “These should be 6X or larger.”
In addition, Cheney said hotels should install handrails at pools and invest in sturdier, wider chairs for lounges and poolside, to help larger people feel safe and relaxed.
And hotels need to “train their staff to be respectful, understanding and responsive to travelers of all sizes,” she said.
Cheney wrote in the caption:
“Hotel amenities, including size, are more than just accommodations, they are a sign of respect for diverse needs and body types,” she continued.
“Every detail matters, from the spacious seating to the thoughtful bathroom fixtures,” she writes. “Let’s make travel truly accessible and welcoming for travelers of all sizes and abilities.”
However, Cheney’s request was met with mixed reviews online.
“While I agree that this is ideal, some things are out of the hotel’s control, such as the size of the elevator,” one person wrote, using the British term for elevator.
However, another TikTok user commented, “I support it 100%.”
Others took a harsher view of Cheney’s demands, with one woman asking, “How do you say you want things to change but not change yourself?”
Another suggested: [would] Diets are cheaper.
“I don’t want any airline or hotel to pay for my diet because I’m fat,” she wrote, but one male user said Cheney had “no right” to make such demands. “There is,” he said.
“Imagine feeling entitled to demand that an entire industry respond to your inability to put down a fork,” he wrote, calling it “wild.”
Cheney describes herself as a “plus-size travel, fashion, and lifestyle” creator and has more than 134,000 followers on TikTok.
