These blankets would be good for passengers who are allergic to wool and/or feathers, plus they're vegan for those who care.

Still, I wonder how/whether they're washed between use by different people. Can plastic be laundered in hot water like many normal fabrics? Or are they disposable and meant for a single use, indicated by removal of the paper band around this blanket?
