This is only for int'l BE right?

I was on SFO-JFK on Tues. and had a standard red amenity kit (still a nice touch for domestic travel).

Yes, only for international BE. I think once the red kits are gone, they'll use up the brown ones on domestic services.

I was on LGA-MKE on Thursday night and had a standard red Biscoff amenity kit. Oh yeah, and a bottle of Dasani that had been sitting in the seat back pocket.

Nice upgrade
Got one on my latest SYD-LAX flight. IMO better than the old smelly ones. :-:

I really like the bag... Guess I'm just a sucker for tumi!

I'm sure this is a silly question, but do intra-Asia flights (such as NRT-GUM) get the new amenity kit?

Not sure about NRT-GUM, but I did get one last week on my BKK-NRT flight.

Flew to from NRT to GUM on the 21st and back on the 23rd, and we did not get a kit. The fact that they're around 3 hours and not 6 like the SIN and BKK flights probably has something to do with it.

Alright, if we're zeroing in on this, what about HKG-NRT? Anyone have experience on that route? Block time is a bit variable, it appears. At present, 3:55, but when I fly in June, 4:20.

Thanks. I will have plenty of kits by the time this trip is done. If I got one on that route I would give it to a family member.

I love the idea of donations of the dozens of unopened kits, Bravo

My GUM-NRT flight is blocked at 4:05, and the return is blocked at 3:55. I can ask an FA about your route when I'm flying next week.
