Who wears the Pyjamas?
Out of curiosity, do folks in long haul business typically change into the pyjamas? Would you recommend wearing something else to sleep in instead? My wife and I are flying LAX-BNE-PER and this is the first flight we'll be on where PJs are part of the kit, so not sure what the protocol is.
Thanks!
Thanks!

I'd say about 80% of passengers use the Pajamas.
I do myself, putting them on with such a flight before supper and taking them of after breakfast.
The FA's will (either they offer or you ask) take your day wear and hang them for you.

Typically most passengers on LAX routes wear them. I usually come from work meetings wearing a suit and it is rather convenient to change in to the PJs once airborne. Then again I pretty much sleep throughout the whole flight.

My husband wears the PJs but I pack my own tshirt/tights because that's what I prefer. I get changed soon after we get seated/before take off but hubby waits until after meal service.
My only advise is to take a pair of slippers from a hotel and wear them on the plane so youre not barefoot/socks in the toilets and throw the slippers away on last cleanup.

An FA friend of mine says they're very useful for penis size checking (since many men have an erection when they wake up). He has remarked on a number of celebrities who are clearly less than well endowed

+1. Many Americans have an irrational fear of skin and think that textiles make skin clean. They put little consideration into the fact that textiles carry fifth and that tight textiles make for sweat. They - like the Brits - even wear clothing while swimming and visiting the sauna.
