A traveler who has taken more than 325 business-class flights shares one thing he’s surprised other passengers don’t take advantage of

Dennis Bunnik has been on more than 325 business-class flights.

He said that out of the many perks, more passengers should take advantage of the complimentary pj’s.

Bunnik said wearing pajamas on long-haul flights is relaxing and keeps your clothes clean.

In the past decade, Dennis Bunnik has boarded more than 700 flights, nearly half of which have been in

and multicourse meals.

But there’s one thing he’s shocked passengers don’t use enough, he said. And that’s the complimentary pajamas.

Some airlines on long-haul flights offer passengers pajamas

Bunnik said the first time he boarded a flight that offered pajamas, he didn’t think twice about throwing them on. Hundreds of flights later, pajamas and loungewear are a favorite perk of Bunnik’s.

“There are a number of airlines that offer them, and they’re fantastic,” he said.

The loungewear sets are typically simple. They often include a pair of pants, a short- or long-sleeved shirt, and slippers.

, Qantas, United Airlines, and Virgin Atlantic are among those carriers.

If they’re offered, it’s typically on overnight flights, though passengers can request a pair during a daytime flight as well.

The frequent traveler said pajamas serve two purposes

Bunnik said the passengers who skip out on wearing their pajamas are missing out. “One, it keeps your clothes crease-free and clean,” he said.

Even more importantly, he added, pajamas help shift a traveler’s mindset. “It helps you relax,” he said.

Bunnik said that once he’s wearing his pajamas, it’s easier for him to forget about the outside world and settle on the plane.

Bunnik added that he doesn’t change into the pajamas until after takeoff. Once the seatbelt sign is off, he’ll head to the restroom to change. Before landing, he’ll put his regular clothes back on.

“If there’s an emergency evacuation, you don’t want to be the one standing there in your pajamas,” he said.
