Thanks, HerbFlyer, for asking this question because I fly on Monday in coach for ten hours to London overnight! I'm planning to wear a thick, pullover that I can always remove in case they can supply a blanket. I'm bringing my own travel pillow. I've tried the inflatable ones and my neck doesn't feel as comfortable, so I'm returning to the beaded version of a neck pillow. I tie the ropes of the pillow sack to my handbag straps so I can stuff my handbag with only the things I need for the night.
