I’ve been a Flight Attendant for 10+ years. I travel A LOT for both work and pleasure. It’s very difficult to regulate the temperature on an aircraft. As a result it’s often freezing. I travel light but I believe a blanket is worth the space in your luggage. I’ve tried a lot of travel blankets over the years and this one is hands down the best. It’s generously sized, yet compact. It’s lightweight yet warm. I love the foot and hand pockets. My favorite feature are the neck snaps. Genius! It’s so nice to have a blanket that will actually stay in place.

I’m 6ft tall and ordered the XL. I’m glad I did. I don’t think I’d be happy if it were any shorter. It’s great that they offer a tall person friendly blanket and worth taking advantage of if you are over 6ft.

My only complaint is the colors. I’d love to see some options that are less “backpacker” and more aesthetic. I ordered the quartz. In person it’s an ugly shade of pinky brown that looks very baby poop. Not cute. Hopefully more colors are on the horizon. That being said, even though I think the blanket is ugly I still love it because the design is just that good.

Final thoughts: I love this blanket! The design is flawless. It’s spendy, but worth it. This is the perfect travel blanket.
