She’s booby-trapped in high-cost traveling.
Paying an arm and a leg for flights can be a major pain. But for Summer Robert, a frequent flyer with 55-pound, size R breasts, paying through the nose just to fit comfortably in an airplane seat is a budget-busting injustice, says the siren, who’s spent over $50,000 upgrading from economy to business class accommodations for extra space.
“There is a real physical and financial toll of navigating a world that feels increasingly designed for a one-size-fits-all standard,” Robert, 28, said in a statement, chiding the airline industry for imposing a “boob tax” on her full-figured physique.
“The biggest struggle is comfort, especially on a long-haul flight,” continued the buxom bombshell, an OnlyFans model from Scotland. “I always end up with the person next to me touching my boobs, and it makes both of us uncomfortable.”
She recently shelled out a whopping $14,686 for a one-way flight from Los Angeles, California, to Melbourne, Australia, paying a premium to make the 16-hour trip in peace, calling the added-on fees a shameless “money grab.”
“The lack of space in economy means I cannot do it,” Robert groaned. “Even something so simple like putting the tray table down to eat my dinner is so difficult; it doesn’t go down all the way.”
“I need to get business, or I won’t be able to eat my dinners on a plane or be touched by another passenger.”
It’s the high price of being a voluptuous vacationer.
Curvy, portly and plus-size passengers, worldwide, often find themselves on the business end of the airline industry’s potshots as commercial carriers continue heaping excess costs on folks with excess poundage.
Controversial mandates, such as Southwest Airline’s new “customer of size” policy, forcing plump flyers to purchase an extra seat before takeoff, has triggered an outpouring of outrage from critics of all weight classes.
United Airlines has, too, recently come under fire after a flight attendant allegedly told plus-size model Tess Holliday to “lose weight” while in mid-air.
And although Robert’s extra heft is mostly contained in her bra, the travel industry’s insensitivity weighs heavily on the pinup, who suffers from macromastia. It’s a rare condition, plaguing roughly 300 people around the globe, that causes ongoing and excessive breast growth, oft-triggering physical and emotional distress, per the Cleveland Clinic.
“I get really, really warm because I’m carrying a lot of weight in my chest,” said Robert. “In a crowded cabin, this physical strain becomes unbearable.”
The tight squeeze of traveling economy has also left the well-endowed diva damaged.
“I burnt my boobs literally two or three weeks ago,” she griped. “I spilled hot, boiling tea on them, and I burnt them completely. My boobs are red, raw, burnt right now.”
Beyond her financial and physical frustrations, Robert claims she’s often objectified by jerks in airports — including gate agents — making jet-setting a triple shot of “hell” for the VIP vixen.
“I want people to know that it isn’t all glitz and glam,” said Robert of her internet-famous orbs. “It’s fun for sure, I love my body so much, but there are definitely downsides.”
