Speaking of I'm OBSESSED with the NH cocktail napkins that are made with used green tea leaves. Smell sooooooo good.

Had them on my TATL last weekend. I saw 2 versions. I believe one had Golden Gate bridge, but didn't pay a lot of attention.

Did not see any Coke tie-in branding on them.

Isn't this also how they used to source their dinner rolls and bread? A six year supply stored somewhere in the dessert...

Flew to FRA a few days ago - new napkins with multiple destinations. I saw Sydney, London and Honolulu. FA said there were many more.

Three exclamation points in the title??? They're great and all, but I think that may be overdoing the excitement level just a bit

I'm not sure whats more impressive..

A: That there's a thread about napkins.
B: There was already a thread about napkins dating back from Mar 2015
C: Someone decided to bump above listed old thread about napkins.

Bravo FT. Too funny.

Kudos for something different.

Something artsy / whimsical about them. Makes you want to pull out your pen and finish the sketch.

I'm usually a stickler for brand standard but nice touch.

AA used to put employee art on the covers of menus.

this is my favorite thread on FT.

i had the ANA green tea napkins yesterday, but never thought to smell them! hopefully they're also in an NRT lounge.

the HNL club still has the older coca-cola napkins in use. can't wait to see those run out. the new napkins are a big hit.
