His & Hers SkyRest inflatable travel pillows                                  New                                            Non-returnableUS Patent 6647573 - Air travel pillowA travel pillow designed specifically for commercial airline travel is disclosed. The unique feature of this travel pillow is that it is designed to provide support from the front rather than the back. It essentially allows the user to lean forward effortlessly, place the head down and sleep without worrying about the head flopping forward as with any pillow designed to support the back of the head. The pillow consists of a large, firm but soft object comprising about 1.5 cubic feet, sized and shaped to fit on the food service tray available with any airline seat, and includes a platform for placing a typical airline pillow on top. DAC Innovations Inc.is the maker of SkyRest, the world's first travel pillow designed for use in any kind of seat and SkyRest , an inflatable wedge shaped pillow for sleeping in a reclined position. SkyRest can be used anywhere. However, the primary intended use for it is while sitting in a commercial airline seat. Its patented design is one of the first to use the natural tendency of your head to tilt forward because of gravity to help you get comfortable. SkyRest has proven itself to be an extremely versatile traveling companion. Unlike most travel pillows, that can be used to drape over your shoulders or play indoor horseshoes with, SkyRest can be used in many situations and positions to help ease your pain while traveling.   For example, when flying, besides the normal method shown, you can also use it to prop your feet up. Rather than relying on the ability to lean back in your seat as with most travel pillows, SkyRest recognizes that this is not always easy or possible. Even if you can lean back, the angle may be too small to allow sleep without your head falling forward and instantly waking you up! To use SkyRest you lean forward rather than backward to rest your head. SkyRest does not require any particular configuration of the seat. It doesn't matter if the seat tilts back, how high the seat back is or where or even if there is any sort of head rest. It can also be positioned in several ways and used as a table or desktop pillow for taking those "power naps" in order to boost your productivity. Since it is an inflatable device and designed to inflate and deflate very quickly, it can be packed into your carry-on luggage and inflated once you are in your seat. It is very lightweight and can easily be moved around to allow for passenger traffic. We sincerely hope that SkyRest helps you to get many hours of rest on your flights, train or car trips or on those long stopovers between flights!SkyRest is featured in the premier travel catalog, SkyMall and has been featured on the CBS News Early Show and USA Today. Q&A     #Does SkyRest tm come in different sizes?SkyRest tm comes in only one size because only one size is needed. The sloping top and the ability to be used on an airline food tray or on your lap allows for a wide variety of torso heights. It has been tested on individuals ranging from 4'10" to 6'6" and found to be comfortable for all.   Is SkyRest tm difficult to inflate or deflate?SkyRest tm has been designed with ease of inflation and deflation in mind. The removable deflation valve is designed to allow very fast deflation(~10-15 seconds)so that you can get ready for de-planing quickly. For inflation, experience has shown that the best way to do this is to start with the valve removed. This leaves a large hole so that air can easily enter the pillow. Just pull out the corners of the pillow to form it into it's inflated shape(like a cube)and it is now 80% full of air. Now insert the valve and the air inside is trapped by the one-way inflation valve. From this point it takes just a few breaths of air to top it off to the desired firmness and you're ready to go! Of course you can also use forced air if it's available. For example, some aircraft have an overhead air nozzle that can be used. If you're stuck at the airport you can use an ordinary hair dryer on cool setting or even the hand dryer in the restroom.   When is the best time to inflate my pillow on a flight?It is best to wait until the seat belt sign is extinguished once you are in the air. The reason for this is that the cabin pressure will have stabilized by this time. If you inflate it too early you may have a problem with over-inflation, in which case the pillow will expand like a balloon. If this does happen, all you have to do is loosen the deflation valve until some pressure is released and the pillow returns to it's normal size.   How can I tell if the pillow is over-inflated?The pillow is designed to fit easily within the space provided in any coach seat. If it seems to be too large for the space provided then it may be over-inflated. A good width guide is the food tray. Note that is is not possible to over-inflate the pillow by mouth; only a drop in cabin pressure will do this.   What if I'm in the middle or aisle seat and someone wants to get in or out?It's really no different than if you have your food tray down with food, a book or a laptop computer on it. Simply get up, lift your food tray if necessary, put the pillow on your seat and let the person in or out. The good thing is, it is very light weight and easy to move and if you should accidentally bump someone with it, it cannot hurt them!   How large is SkyRest tm when deflated?When you get it from us it will be as folded by the clever people at the factory and it's about 1" x 13.5" x 9" and weighs only 20 ounces. However it is very flexible and can be easily folded or rolled into many different sizes and shapes so that it will fit into a carry-on bag along with all your other things. A good way to pack it is to put it in last, laid flat so that it creates a layer on the top. Then you just need to unzip one side of the top of your carry-on and pull it out once you're on the plane. Another option is to unpack it just before getting on and hold it in your hand, then stuff it into the seat back until you're airborne and ready to use it. Can ship WorldWide and next business day! FYI:First, there were fees for previously free perks, such as food. Now some airlines are charging fliers for comforts, such as pillows and blankets. And the end may not be in sight. Travel Weekly writes that at least one airline could start charging customers to check in at the airport counter. That could be coming ?within the next 12 to 18 months? from European low-cost carrier Flybe the publication writes. Flybe CEO Mike Rutter tells Travel Weekly that he thinks the charge would be justified since most of the airline?s customers can check-in for free online. *** Comments & reviews for the SkyRest Travel Pillow *** Love the pillows, I just got back from California and your pillow gave me a bunch of hours of sleep on the red eye :) Peace, Stevemore reviewsGot the pillow on time at the end of Sept via FedEx. Worked great - "I purchased the Skyrest pillow as an air traveler that NEVER can find a way to sleep on airplanes. In anticipation for a long overnight flight to Europe where it was imperative that I be fully functional the next day, I purchased the Skyrest and it made all the difference in the world. It only took twenty seconds to inflate, it fit perfectly on the tray table in front of me and provided the optimal sleep position, allowing me to pack in five and a half hours of much-needed sleeping time. I give it five out of five stars." Many thanks, S.S. from Atanta, GAmore reviews Send quickly & in great condition. Pillow has been helpful on 2 trips already! Buyer computertutor2001 More Reviews on the SkyRest Travel Pillow...This person is able to sleep comfortably in any Seat! Can you say the same? Probably not, unless you have SkyRest. SkyRest deflates and folds into an easy-to-pack size and shape. The large, removable inflation valve makes inflation and deflation a snap!As you can see, SkyRest is unlike any other travel pillow. It's unique configuration allows it to be used in many ways. Besides the method shown, you can use it to prop up your feet on the plane or on the ground. Or, put it in the window and lean against it. Besides making a good sized pad to fill the gap, it will insulate against the very cold window. Under- inflated it can serve as a replacement for a standard bed pillow in your hotel room; use it to sit up and read or watch TV. Stuck at the airport? Find a seat, prop your feet up, hunker down and take a nap. The uses for SkyRest are really only limited by your imagination!Here's what the travel experts and press are saying about SkyRest: Dailycandy.com "The miraculous, wedge-shaped travel pillow makes even the most uncomfortable spots downright pleasant."
