Gracie Bon, a 27-year-old influencer from Panama with over 4 million Instagram followers, has been asking airlines to make their seats bigger. She says her curvy body doesn’t fit well in standard airplane seats, and it’s uncomfortable for her to fly. In a video she posted online, Gracie showed herself sitting on a plane, struggling with a tight seatbelt and cramped space. She wrote, “Airlines need to make seats bigger for people like me,” pointing out how tough it is for her and others with larger bodies to travel.
Gracie is known for sharing her life as a plus-size woman, often posting about her curves and confidence. But when people saw her video, they zoomed out and noticed something surprising—her body looked very exaggerated, likely from surgeries like Brazilian Butt Lifts (BBLs) and other enhancements. This led to a big debate online. Some fans supported her, saying airlines should help everyone feel comfortable, no matter their size. Others argued she made her body that way with surgery, so it’s not the airlines’ job to change for her.
