Here’s yet another to add to the list of airline fees that just keep arising. Jet Blue is now charging $7 for a combination blanket and pillow set. On the plus side you will be given a $5 coupon to Bed Bath and Beyond but on the downside your paying $7 for something that used to be free!
The way that Jet Blue is looking at this is in a green sense. They state that these sets made by CleanBrands are eco-friendly and use MicronOne, a fabric that blocks all micro-toxins such as dust mites, mold spores, pollen and pet dander.
What do you think? Would you rather pay for a set that you can keep that’s eco-friendly or would you rather get a pillow and blanket that’s been used and (hopefully been washed)?
