Emily Jones, a plus-size travel influencer, is advocating for a more inclusive travel industry. Through her social media platform, she encourages people of all sizes to explore the world while highlighting ways airlines and hotels can better accommodate larger travelers.
Jones suggests airlines normalize offering seatbelt extensions during boarding to reduce anxiety for plus-size passengers and improve comfort with more spacious seating, extra cushioning, and adjustable armrests.
She also recommends hotels provide larger towels and plus-sized bathrobes to help guests feel more welcome and comfortable.
By sharing her experiences traveling between Malta, the UK, and Finland, Jones hopes to make travel more accessible and inclusive for everyone. She also praised the Seychelles as one of the most welcoming destinations she has visited for plus-size travelers.
