New Tumi pouch
On this evening's JFK - CDG flight:
Rather like the AF pouch, soft and sleek. New lotions and potions from Le Labo, nicer than the Kiehl stuff imho. Pen is purple like the DL uniforms. Missing the earplugs, fortunately brought my own.

I hate the hard cases because theytake so much space. It's unrealistic to expect passengers to have room to add them to a carry on bag.

Nice! Hoping for one of the new ones on ATL-CDG in a couple weeks.
I always carry spare earplugs in my briefcase.

Me too! It's an essential of work travel and sleeping in hotels... but thought I'd warn people in case this lapse is deliberate and a sign that DL won't be providing them anymore.

That looks more like what I'd expect for a domestic transcon or PS! If this was the D1 pouch, was it really just a bag and two lotions and a pen? Or did you just not photograph the unchanged products (mask, toothbrush, tissues, socks, mouthwash)? Was it missing earplugs or are they no longer included?

No earplugs in the new kits is a major error. I can't imagine that they cost that much.

in a Ziploc bag, but when they go from backpack to computer bag to other mode of transport, they have a rough go. When I saw the press release, I did notice that earplugs were a notable omission from the D1 kit, but figured it was just forgotten or not important enough. Guess they assume the headphones suffice. I am sure you could always ask for one of the Y amenity kits that have them - there has got to be spares lying around.

I have to say I am a big fan of the improved offerings with Le Labo onboard!
YMMV but I really like different Tumi amenity kit sizes as I can store Cigars or Scotch in them for different purposes.
