On TikTok, Bo shared her experiences with her followers, detailing the obstacles she faces when traveling by air.
The video was captioned: “Flying while fat – Lavatory edition.”
Beginning her explanation, the TikToker said: “So, this is an awkward topic but we’re going to go ahead and get awkward and talk about it.”
She then admitted: “I don’t fit in a standard airplane lavatory at all.”
“Forget the difficulty of having to get two seats to fly – accessibility to a bathroom is the number one roadblock for me when it comes to long-distance travel,” she continued.
Bo further explained that while ‘wide-body aircrafts’ are equipped with wheelchair-accessible toilets, which are also spacious enough for larger individuals, ‘narrow-body’ planes do not have the same requirements.
“If I’m flying on a narrow-body plane, I can’t use the bathroom and my maximum flight time is about six hours,” the TikToker elaborated.
She added: “I’ve never had a problem with that before except once I came super close to having an accident on a flight from San Francisco to Chicago.
