………………………Wow. I am prophetic or what?

When I published my post yesterday on No more free water on airlines, I predicted in jest that the newest measure to be adopted by the airlines would be to charge for blankets and pillows on flights. Sure enough, later in the day, I saw a news blurb online about Jet Blue, a popular discount carrier in the USA, deciding to charge their passengers $7.00USD for a blanket and pillow kit on all flights longer than two hours. In return, passengers will also receive a $5.00 coupon to be applied towards for a purchase at a home accessories store. Slick marketing, huh? What’s next?
