I can't remember the last time I actually bought soap, shampoo or conditioner due to the number of nights I tend to stay away from home in hotels. I try to stay at Hilton whenever I can and have plenty of 'own brand' items. Staying at some of their London hotels and the Calledonian in Edinburgh, they offer Moulton Brown goodies instead. MB was the brand used in BA amenity packs a couple of years ago, and consisted of (I think) toothbrush/paste, shower gel, shampoo, eye patches in a MB pouch. Lately, when I have travelled BA Club, the MB pouch has been replaced by a blue bag with no logos hinting at the contents. I think, however, that it's still MB inside. I've got about 5 of them in my bathroom, 3 of them unopened as I haven't used up my hotel stash yet!
I seem to remember on both occasions the cabin crew handing out the packs individually, as the contents were biased towards men or women.
My next BA flight is on BA0001 to head to north America for Canada Day and Independence Day. I look forward to seeing what I get on this trip!

Nick 24: The VS bags used to be gender specific in the early days but now are the same, although biased towards teh female on my last trip. Probably reckoning that blokes will want to pass them on to women folk to score 'brownie' points. True!
BA0001? Yep, my written confirmation arrived today for 8th August. But of course, if the amentify pouch is no good - I might as well cancel ...

BA001
I was on the same flight last August - and SHOCK HORROR - no amenty pack or gift items at all.
I thought we'd been singled out due to using BA Miles to get the flights but nobody else got anything, so beware you may have to take your own pamshoo etc on your jollies.

Thanks for the tip, FF! Fortunately, I will be staying at the Waldorf Astoria for a couple of nights before heading north, and from past experience (and looking around my bathroom) they do great shampoo!
For any ladies reading this thread, contrary to what you might be thinking, yes, I do wash my hair!

Amused to note that on Miami - Vienna about 7 years ago the amenity bag, actually a money belt, also contained a condom. Well they did have cute CC - the girls anyway!
