I understand this completely. I have N cup breasts and wear 24/26 pants and have felt completely uncomfortable for years because of this and I never traveled until a couple years ago. I got on a plane for the first time Christmas of 2014 and was so nervous because of my wide hips I imagined hitting every other passenger as I ambled my way to my seat. Then of course the belt extenders..that's embarrassing in itself to ask for, but it's necessary for those bigger or with wider hips.   I've traveled to Las Vegas and Seattle since then and have always enjoyed my flights regardless of how others may think of me, but I've been lucky enough to have my best friend go with me and sit next to me and endure me "being on her" at times when I can't help it. She doesn't mind, and has to remind me that it's okay if I lean on her so I'm not in the aisle or something. As long as she's able to sleep on me she doesn't mind at all. :)  But I hope you continue to write about your travels, Pam. It's always great to see a different perspective especially with a writer that I can relate to so well. :)  N-cup breasts, and wide hips...  I have a feeling if this one had a tumor she'd describe it as "more me to love" or a "a curvier liver" And that "friend"... jesus, I hope that friend is imaginary.
