Welcome to the club, then! I ALWAYS travel w/y own pillow, in part because I'm deathly allergic to feathers & down & you can't always count on the hotels being able to provide foam/latex (especially ones that aren't beaten down, lumpy, & stinky). It also goes in my suitcase last, so it's on top & provides extra cushion when the ticket agent, TSA person (sorry, I refuse to call them 'Officers'!), or baggage handler throws the bag on the belt(s) face down.
