"Red Eye Sleep Kit" question
Has anyone seen or purchased this item?
From the VA web site:
We now offer an upgraded "Red Eye Sleep Kit" for sale onboard that offer our signature red fleece blanket along with a comfy neck pillow, sleep mask and earplugs
I fly a lot, but a newby to VA. Is this a kit that you can use on other flights? Do you get to keep the blanket and neck pillow? Are the items of decent reusable quality? Sorry this may seem like a dumb question.

Do you know how much they are offered for? I'd consider buying the kit at a reasonable price (I currently have my own adhoc kit for long flights). Do you have a link that you can post?

I assume they are the same blanket/pillow that you get in VX F (that are comparable to international transpac/TATL items). If so, you should be able to get quite a bit of reuse out of them.

That isn't too bad. $9.99 is cheaper than a lot of neck pillows. If you pick one up, please let us know what it is like?

I bought the kit yesterday. If anyone knows a way to post pictures here I'll attempt it, but I just don't know how. Copy and paste doesn't work.
The kit comes in a red fleece tube with a drawstring closeure that has the Virgin America logo embroidered on it. Its about 14" long by about 6" wide. Inside is a very thin fleece red blanket about 3ft by 5ft. Also inside is a plastic bag holding the black inflatable neck pillow, eyeshades and earplugs. The cost was $9.99 which did include taxes.
