I'm sure they'll start selling pillows and/or blankets after flu season is over (since they kind of used H1N1 as an excuse to stop providing them).
If that is the case then my beverage coupons will become worth more then.

I may have mentioned this a few weeks ago but Chase sent a letter saying that they were grateful for me using their CC and they wanted to thank me with a coupon for use in flight. No coupon was in the letter so I called and they said a coupon would come. A coupon came in the mail on saturday and it was odd. it is the first Adult beverage coupon that I have ever had that came with an expiration date. Guess I will need to make sure to drink an adult beverage within the next 18 months!
