Het there everyone, sorry for the title - a bit over-the-top - but for all those people out there that fly in business class (and F), this topic peeves me.
I recently flew transatlantic with British Airways, in business class, and yet again I was shocked by the coughpy quality of many "amenity kit" products these days.
I suspect that the kits could not possibly cost the airline more than a buck each. Maybe much less. Is it too much to expect that the amenity kit could be at least worth keeping? I used to think it was a special thing, a delightful detail that made premium flying that much more special. But these kits are embarrassing trash. Are the bean-counters in the airlines that far removed from reality????
If the airlines paid 10 or 20 bucks per kit, they could provide an awesome product. Something actually worthy of the $5000 fare. Something memorable.
But no, they give you a toothbrush that insults the senses with its cheap quality. Almost dangerous.
I will eventually upload photos of my usual routes/carriers products, but in the meantime, can anyone please post content list and photos of different carriers current offerings in this much neglected area.....
