In a bold move, 25-year-old influencer Jaelynn Chaney claims she’s collaborating with a US Senator to secure free airplane seats for overweight passengers. Chaney, a travel and lifestyle creator, ignited a fierce debate by demanding the Federal Aviation Authority and airlines provide unlimited free seats for comfortable travel.
In a recent TikTok video, Chaney hinted at meetings with a prominent US Senator’s team, adding a layer of intrigue to her cause. While she hasn’t disclosed the specific Senator, her Instagram page suggests an online connection with Senators Maria Cantwell, Patty Murray, and Tammy Duckworth.
Chaney alleges contact with airline representatives, releasing a petition signed by over 38,000 individuals, advocating for extra free seats for plus-size passengers to ensure their comfort during flights. She insists on reimbursements, suggesting airlines refund those who purchase additional seats independently.
