Ju Isen, a Brazilian model and influencer, claims to spend over $13,000 on first-class flights to evade harassment from men during travel. After facing persistent unwanted attention while flying economy, where she described harassment as a 'bonus,' Isen now prioritizes her comfort and personal space on flights. She emphasizes that despite criticism regarding her spending, the peace of mind she gains from flying in first class is invaluable, allowing her to travel without the disturbances she once endured in coach seating.
"In economy, harassment comes as a bonus. I'd rather pay more and protect myself."
"I've had men try to chat me up while I was half-asleep, ask if I was single or offer to buy me a drink mid-air."
"First class is the only space where no one tries to invade my personal bubble with small talk or creepy stares."
"People love to criticize the price I pay but never question why I feel the need to pay it."
