American tosses pillows off most domestic flights

Airline pillows are soon coming off most of American Airlines' domestic flights to cut costs.

Some great quotes from the article:

Washington-based frequent flier David Blanchard says he'll never substitute a blanket for a pillow because airplane blankets collect germs, too. 'I can't tell you how many times I've seen people wrap their feet in them,' he says.
