Does anyone here actually collect amenities kits as a hobby?

[Milboo]

I want one of the pink ones from Qatar!

 

[Pushka]

Maybe @Pushka can ask her son and new daughter in law?

Just saw this. Must ask them! DIL went straight back to work in the country.
My stack of Qatar J has grown considerably. What surprised me on the flight DOH-ADL is that most people left them behind! Sacre Bleu!

I have a few different ones but the bulk if mine are Qantas.
Husband is about to do a business first class on Cathay sooo looking forward to that set
Ta @Pushka Lol
Some airlines do such cute amenities kits

Same with Etihad. Thats most prob because they have one of the worse kits out there but the cases are used by Every Little Bit Helps to make female bags with tampons, makeup ect.

So is it politically incorrect to grab one left behind? Asking for a *friend*......

Nope! I grab as many as I can as I exit the cabin. Delta flight I scored about 8 of the Tumi cases and Etihad I got about 10 (more like pretty fabric/neoprene pencil cases). Just prepare some space in your carry on or bag to shove them in while waiting for immigration/whatever.

We've collected a few hundred kits over decades, we give them to a local Doctor who visits the oldies in care, they love em...

I felt kind of awkward to be honest. Like I was searching through someone else's left overs. There were four I could have taken just on my side alone.

 

[get me outta here]

Whilst standing waiting to disembark, I sometimes ask the pax if they are taking it if it looks unopened, saying that I'll give to my daughter. Got a sprinkles one for her recently. And, before she collected a couple of the lovely Aboriginal artwork kits for her girl friends.
I suppose one way would be to stay sitting until the cabin has pretty much emptied and then collect a few on the way out. It wouldn't hold you up much.

I have about 10 of the EY ones and love them for travelling and daily use. I use them for make up bags, keeping phone, pens, cables etc together in hand luggage, medical kit etc. I find them much better than the QF Kate Spade ones.

Not at all. My wife doesn't approve but if it's left behind it's only going to go in the rubbish bin. That said I don't see many left behind.

As a person who does love amentity kits ....anyone seen the bvlagari Emirates new kits ?

As a side note I got the fairy bread one. Very cute

So look what my new DIL brought me today.



The contents are pretty much the same but the bag itself is way more user friendly than the satin ones. Quite large too. And their writing box has been replaced by nice notebook.

 

[Denali]

That is gorgeous @Pushka thanks for the real time photos
I actually quite liked their writing box. We have a few which we use

Notebook will be rather handy though.

 

[Denali]

Does the pen have the soft thingy on the end so you can use on screens/like a stylus?

 

[mrsterryn]

Ok need an emirates 1st class flight

 

[Pushka]

No, it’s a pen to write in the notebook

 

[ramboflyer]

I dont fly regularly enough to collect a lot of the bags but I bring them home for the grandkids who love them for overnighters. They prefer to use the little toothpaste tubes over the normal size!
