JetBlue Charging $7 for Pillow, Blanket Kit

I’m getting pretty sick of having to pay a few hundred dollars for a plane ticket, then having to pay to an extra bag, crappy snacks, and everything else associated with flying.  Today Jet Blue says that it will start charging $7 for a pillow and blanket.  The carrier has done away with the recycled blankets and pillows used on its flights, and have started offering an "eco-friendly" travel blanket and pillow that can be purchased for $7 on flights longer than two hours.  I guess they care about consumers’ a little though the pair come in a kit with a $5 coupon to Bed Bath & Beyond.  This is course their way to combat the raising cost of jet fuel.  They are also charging customers buying seats with extra leg room, a $15 fee for a second checked bag and a ticket change fee.  Unbelievable!
