A “plus-size” travel influencer claimed a Washington airport worker refused to push her in a wheelchair up the jet bridge because of her size, which left her gasping for air when she was forced to walk off the plane.

Jae’lynn Chaney, 27, revealed on TikTok that she requested “wheelchair assistance” during her trip to Sea-Tac International Airport in Washington.

“I’m a plus-size wheelchair user and on a recent flight to the Sea-Tac airport, I requested wheelchair assistance, as I always do,” a narrator said on Chaney’s post. “When it came time for me to deplane, I saw the employee who would be assisting me with my wheelchair waiting for me in the entry of the jet bridge.”

The influencer, who has amassed over 135,500 followers on the platform, claimed the employee started walking away from the plane when she saw the traveler deboard the plane.

“As I approached her and she realized she’d be assisting me and not one of the smaller passengers she started to walk away with the wheelchair while making comments about my size,” Chaney claimed.

Chaney, who can walk, allegedly told the employee she needed the chair but was “blatantly ignored,” forcing her to walk up “one of the longest jet bridges I’ve encountered.”

The long walk took a lot of energy out of the influencer, and she claimed she nearly fainted.

“By the time she let me reach the wheelchair and sit down my lips were white, my oxygen levels had dropped, and I almost fainted,” Chaney recalled.

She doesn’t like eating. She likes getting rid of all the food. Odd habits this one has.

A very large local woman maintained a terrible odor. She went to the doctor and upon full exam, he found a hot dog had fallen into a fold of fatted skin and was spoiled. This is a true story.

When my beloved cat was eighteen, the vet told me that I had to switch her to this special diet, or she would die. The cat didn’t like it. I thought, it’s her life. If she enjoys a particular food and it’s bad for her, it’s her life and her joy. Who am I to make her remaining time miserable. She lived another four years, which is quite elderly for a cat. All the bad things the vet said would happen, happened. But she enjoyed life as much as was possible. I got a lot of purring and love right to the last day. I thought this was a valuable life lesson.

If you’re 77, you’ve made it. You have outlived literally millions upon millions of humans throughout history. Try to be reasonable, but if dieting makes you more miserable and eating what you want gives you satisfaction, it’s your life. Live it the way you enjoy. Nothing is worse than living but being in constant misery.

“Does she have an oxygen machine next to her on the plane? What is that contraption?”

Yes, that is an oxygen machine. Looks like an Inogen. I have one just like it.

You ever parked your bicycle in an airplane hangar? You ever throw a toothpick into a volcano?

LOL! Or when wrestlers Chris Jericho and (actual husband) Triple H were riffing on Stephanie McMahon when she said Trip "came up short" in the bedroom. "Even a 747 looks small flying into the Grand Canyon".

But hey, the movie ended on a high note when, after the creature consumed so many people, some smarter citizens froze the creature and caused it to shatter into inert pieces to be collected and transported to the far Arctic.
