Story from Jam Press (Model Buys Jet) Pictured: A video grab of Gracie Bon giving a tour of her own private jet. VIDEO: Curvy model who complained about plane seats solves problem by buying own jet A curvy model, who slammed the size of plane seats as being too small for her big bum, has solved the problem by buying her own private jet. Gracie Bon was outraged that her curvy behind wouldn’t fit into a commercial plane’s standard seats three months ago. To get around the issue, the 26-year-old has decided to buy her very own luxury aircraft. Bon shared a video on Instagram for her 5.5 million followers where she said: “I just bought my first plane. “Commercial airlines are not making bigger seats, so I took matters into my own hands. “So welcome aboard, I’m gonna show you everything. “This plane is perfect for big girls like me. “I think the door is very wide so you can hop in easily. “And the seats are marvellous, I won’t have to buy two tickets anymore. “The price was quite high and I’m definitely in debt for the rest of my life, but I know it’s worth it.” She added: “I’m in love with my new plane, hard work pays off.” According to reports, the jet is valued at £1.6 million (BRL 10 million) and Bon suggested she has taken out a long-term financial plan to acquire it. Her video went viral with 3.8 million views in one day. In January, the Panamanian model hit the headlines after slamming standard seat sizes on commercial planes, as reported by What'sTheJam. She said: “Airplanes should have bigger seats. “So today I had a flight and even if I was flying in first class I couldn't fit on the airplane. "So this is a petition for all the airlines so big girls like me can fly.” She adds: “It's not my fault I have an a*se this big. “Please just make them bigger."
