JetBlue: Yes, You Can Have a Blanket and a Pillow — for $7

Want to grab a little shut-eye on your next JetBlue flight? No problem! You can even have a fresh pillow and blanket, if you don’t mind paying $7 for this “Snooze Kit”. Yep, the latest airline fee. But this isn’t the worst fee I’ve heard of: for one thing, it’s a new blanket and pillow, and supposedly “eco-friendly” to boot. According to the article I saw, the blanket and pillow “feature fabric technology, developed by CleanBrands LLC, that blocks pesky critters like dust mites, mold spores, pollen and pet dander.” Added bonus: each “Snooze Kit” comes with a $5 coupon good at Bed, Bath & Beyond.
