Service on airplanes these days barely includes a soft drink or a bag of pretzels, much less any other little perks to improve comfort. One such perk to nearly bite the dust are branded playing cards, a method of passing the hours before iPads and in-flight movies existed.

I had forgotten that my flight to Japan from Los Angeles in February had a pack of United Airlines playing cards sitting on each passenger's seat awaiting them during boarding. I brought my pack home and lost track of where I put it. I have have given it to my roomie, Jes while she was in the hospital. I'll have to ask her.

The article does list the airlines who still provide branded packs of playing cards on their flights.
