Oh boy!! You can buy a pillow at Walgreen's for $7 that is yours forever and ever!! I'm telling you one of these days they are going to install a pay toilet on the aircraft!

Sad, yes, but not surprising. And probably better for you to "buy" your own pillow and blanket rather than get one that had been used and cleaned previously.

This all is starting to sound like the 1930s when only the rich could fly.

How is Disney planning on getting people to its parks??

Not much is surprising me these days re: what they'll charge you for. Luckily DD likes to bring her own blanket with her, I guess we'll just be packing the little Dory pillow I got her at Disney Store too! I knew that thing would come in handy!

ok i do not think it is that bad you pay $7.00 and you also get a $5.00 coupon to bed bath and beyond so it actually will cost you $2.00 . i usually never use a pillow but i do not think it is that horrible .

That really is sad. It would be better to just let passengers bring their own without counting towards carryon limits. Then they wouldn't have to store them on the plane.

AirCanada has been charging for a pillow and blanket for a couple years now. That's why I bought a blanket that you can tuck into a cover that turns it into a pillow. It's paid for itself over and over since I got it. It has two strips of fabric that snap together and I just snap it around the handle of my carry on bag. So far it's counted as just the one piece being that it's been attached to my main bag....

Personally, I have never used a pillow or blanket on a plane so this won't affect me. They are still cheaper w/ better service than most other airlines out there. i would rather they tack on a fee for something like this that you could easily bring w/ you in a carry on, than take away the free sodas, juice, waters, snacks, etc... like other airlines have done.

I flew back from Orlando on Jetblue this February. They charged the woman across the aisle from us for her pillow and blanket then. Although...she was a rather annoying woman so maybe they just charged her to make up for that.

I agree, I never use a pillow or blanket either but it would not surprise me if they started charging for the drinks and snacks in the future
