I still got the older red kit on yesterday's transcon. I'm LHR bound next week, and will likely get the tan kits.

I always wonder why some of us get too carried away with these amenity kits....you often read things like....

'I'll never fly on this airline again, since I only like to use L'Occitaine lipbalm when I fly'

Of course, that same person will go out of their way to fly a 757 to get a DL F meal....

I hope the selection of Tumi isn't a sign that the Hartmann MM gifts will be replaced by Tumi exclusively.

A very nice touch

I donate mine to Mrs. Paul's home for battered fish.

The new Tumi kits launch across the network on Feb. 15. I think y'all are going to like this enhancement. Transcon flights will continue to be catered with the red kits until that supply is exhausted.

Stay tuned...we've got some additional BE product news coming in the next two weeks.

Have a great weekend!

As an aside...I was always hoping that Benzema would sign with Manchester United.....

It's very nice to get a comb in the amenity kit...now, if I could only get some hair to use it on.

^ Yikes. Just as I complain about bad SM award availability and defecting, I somehow end up coming back to BE.

My prediction is the announcement of the new flat BE seats on the 757s to be used on the JFK-SFO/LAX service and USA-Europe service.

I have only one of those left like you describe and I too depend on it during the long segments of international flights. I posted a thread about this some months ago trying to locate others like it but none were to be found and a replacement is not obvious to me.

The eyeshade looks like it could be a nice upgrade. I've been using one that I got from KE on FRA-ICN, as the ones in AF and DL amenity kits I've acquired since then have been inferior.

My oh my - lets hope I get an OpUp on my March-April DL64/65 flights. April DL65 is actually not promising as it is moving away from a 767 to the big old Airbus for a higher Y seatage.

An enhancement that's not an "enhancement." Some great news that is actually good news...awesome!

Um, er...irony?
