You have put ideas in my head. I have a bag that I go from American. However it gets rather full - this will do perfectly for the onboard cables to keep the Ipad charged as the IFE is mostly pitched at those who are transiting to solid food. The trouble is with this white colour is that it will look quite grubby quite quickly I fear.

The contents have been the same for the last 6yrs. It's a pity these can be switched up or around to make the option more exciting

This is similar to what Mrs Royalscot & I do where we give them to the Paediatric Intensive care unit where parents can suddenly find themselves with the sick infant at little or no notice. The feedback has always been very positive from our contacts at the hospital.

Some of my friends use BA bag to store their travel documents

No - this would be courting disaster with my husband, I ensure that he wears a shirt with a pocket and his passport goes in there. That way it leaves the aircraft with us. Smug that I had found a fool=proof system he managed to have it fall into his seat in J. The crew were simply wonderful and managed to plumb the depths and retrieve it, The rest of the documents stay with me in my handbag along with the Marmalade sandwiches

Can’t say I like the white but I do like the new shape. Sigh at the loss of the pen. That has gotten me out of trouble in the past and tbh I’d have sooner seen the back of that ‘pulse point’ stick and the socks.

As others have said for reused the white doesn't seem like it'll stay white for long. It might be somewhat easier to see at the bottom of a bag though, especially as all my other little baggies tend to be blue/black…

pulse point thing is my favourite part of the current offering (outside of the functional earplugs), though I just enjoy a good sniff of the end rather than applying anywhere..

Though I have accumulated various bags from BA and other airlines over the years, my consistent favourites are the blue cloth bags from Club from a few years ago. They are my go to for lots of stuff. They also double up as a handy bag to pop your book, headphones and sunglasses on when going down to the sun-loungers at a hotel. Mine have been through the wash a few times and still look as good as new.
As for these latest ones, I agree the boxier shape is better, but white?

That was my first thought as well....it wouldn't stay white very long in my grubby hands. I'm sure I've got a similar shaped one in my collection but in blue or brown? Not sure though, as my missus stashes them away somewhere never to see the light of day again!!

Didn't they have white amenity kits at some point years ago right after those shoe bags? I'm pretty sure I've a white one somewhere at home. Currently onboard BA183 to JFK and the pen has definitely been enhanced away...

I use my black one for my eyedrops and blood pressure pills…
As for original contents, I do wish they would include a mini deodorant spray. That would be much more useful (for me anyway) than lip balm.
