The days of free airline pillows and blankets are disappearing almost as quickly as the value of my 401k!
US Airways is the latest airline to announce that blankets and pillows will no longer be given out gratis on flights, at least for those sitting in coach. Instead, if you need a pillow or blankie you will have to fork over $7 to get a “Power-Nap Sack” that includes 34-by-60-inch fleece blanket, a neck pillow, eye shades, foam ear plugs and a $10-off coupon for items in the SkyMall catalog (because really, they haven’t gotten enough of your money yet).
Next up, $10 for bathroom breaks!
