Ads on air sickness bags? Bag the idea.

Via MSN, US Airways wants to put ads on air sickness bags. “Why not make them multipurpose!” goes the logic. Umm, because of the negative association people will have with whatever brand they see after puking? I can smell the potential advertisers lining up now: Campbell’s soup, Jello pudding and Birdseye vegetables.

On Alaska Airlines, all the barf bags say, "SEAT OCCUPIED" on them. They serve double duty.

Lester, if you flip them over, do they also say “FULL”?

;-p

From Alaska Lester? Damn. THAT’s cold.
