Those Blankets and Pillows On-Board Aren't as Clean as You Think

There is no denying that the pillows, blankets, and headphones provided on airplanes are not thoroughly cleaned after each use. Even though they are repackaged with plastic wrap, airlines don't spend money on providing new amenities to passengers every single flight. According to experts, the dirtiest part of a plane actually happens to be the tray tables. So, hopefully, this can bring you some relief knowing that what you're using to sleep isn't as bad as what you're eating your food on.

On the other hand, you're less likely to get fresh blankets and pillows in the coach class so it's probably safest to just bring your own blanket and pillow.
