Leave it on the plane. The change-over crew will have to spend more
time throwing them away. They will then stock the plane with their own
re-usable pillows to save money. Deja vu!
What is their definition of a short haul flight? I used to fly every
Monday morning from ATL to ORD. My home was on EST, but my body was on
CST. Since I was on Central time for 5 days, my Monday wake-up was at
3:00am CST. I would fall asleep before the plane backed away from the
gate and sleep all the way through. One time, the flight attendant had
to wake me; the plane had already landed, the people disembarked and was
completely empty. I relied heavily on those little pillows.
