So it sounds like I will get the soft case tomorrow when I do SYD-LAX. I got the old case on July 1 going LAX-SYD.
I need one of the hard cases so I should be able to grab one with upcoming flights like to/from ATH, PVG, and FCO.

Two more data points. Eastbound TATL in early July, had the soft case. Soon after, another eastbound TATL, had the hard case.
Personally, I prefer the older cases. The new soft sided ones are better for re-use, but they have a weird, almost damp sticky feel to them.

Have others noticed that they have decided to save 3 cents by omitting the comb?
Related... have they also done away with slippers? Last 4 or 5 flights did not have them.

Which routes? And do you mean slippers or the socks? Slippers are only offered on long TPAC routes, along with the extra lumbar pillow, AFAIK.

Or at least consistent application of it.

Flights of 12 or more hours get them and a smaller lumbar pillow in addition to the regular pillow. Lol yes it is definitely funny the minutia we talk about.
