While this is clearly a positive change, especially in economy, lately I’ve been bringing my own sleepwear, instead of using the set United hands out. While the carrier is using the same manufacturer as before, I find United’s previous Polaris pajamas to be considerably higher-end, with longer-lasting materials and pockets in the pants.
Unless Zach Honig, who flies business class 300 times a year, is a hoarder, I don't get this criticism. The pajamas have to last, at most, 16 hours or so. At most.
Longer lasting materials literally don't matter. And I would assume people who can afford business class can afford sleepwear.
