Don't get me wrong, I really enjoy the Westin heavenly bed products. If there are storage issues already with the new seat configs, how much worse will big poofy blankets and pillows make it. Also, the thought of white pillows and blankets; how long before you get on a flight to find a not so white folded blanket/pillow on your seat.
It sounds like a great marketing plan/upgrade for the product, makes me kind of wonder about execution though....

The Shine by Bliss (at Sheraton) is a serious disappointment, it sucks p.s. I helped triggering this product launch, please visit the SPG forum and my infamous thread
W Hotels offer the original bliss (lemon and sage products), which is also offered on Jetblue redeye flights.
aloft hotels will soon offer the Bliss big blue series.
I have the entire Westin Heavenly Bed and W Bed mattress and linens at home. Westin's linens are usually starched, making them a bit harder, but fresh and crisp. W hotels sheets are much more softer.
The bigger seller at Westin isn't the Heavenly linens and comforters, its the "bed"-mattress itself. So, unless p.s. seat cushions are going to be replaced with the Heavenly mattress, I don't find a reason to be excited about

Can't beat them at the soft product or at keeping the costs down?

Now I wonder if SQ's duvet were sponsored by Givenchy, or did they actually pay real SGD for it
Back to the topic: This is nice actually and beats me having to bring the U-shaped foam pillow.

Actually that is not a bad idea. You are going to take a red-eye to, say, SFO from JFK. You get on the plane at 7pm, have dinner and a movie, seat belt on, lie flat, and go to sleep. Plane takes off sometime during the night, you wake up at SFO at 6am, ready to go to work.
I'm not a doctor, but I did sleep in a Westin F-class seat on a p.s. flight last night.

On a serious note, this looks like a good idea and would love to see it as part of the upcoming Int'l C soft product improvements.

I'd be happy if they just fixed the jacked up SPG to MP exchange rate ratio. Seem to recall the exchange rate was negatively adjusted during UA's BK.

sounds good....though I believe that P.S. C class of F is the best domestic products in the states even without it -
I juss hope they wash those blankets and pillows thoroughly, if they are not giving it to the passengers...

If you can't wait for this gear to appear, make your way over to FatWallet and read about the 40% off W Hotels The Store discount code:

I got all excited when I read the title "Westin Heavenly Products".
I was hoping for the Westin Heavenly Bath
