BETHESDA, Md., Oct. 26, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Westin Hotels
& Resorts, part of Marriott International, Inc. (NASDAQ: MAR),
today announced the latest in a series of sleep offerings that
promise a better slumber for travelers, extending beyond just the
guestroom. Challenging the staid in-flight sleep experience,
Westin continues to power ahead in partnership with Delta Air Lines
(NYSE: DAL) with the new Westin Heavenly® In-Flight Blanket
rolling out in Delta's First Class cabins starting
mid-November.
Inspired by design elements of the signature Westin Heavenly®
Bed, this super-soft blanket will help ensure that travelers rest
easy in the clouds. This marks an expansion to the Westin Heavenly
In-Flight program; Westin Heavenly In-Flight Bedding, the
iconic, luxurious white comforters and hypoallergenic pillows, have
been featured in Delta One cabins since 2013.
"Westin has been leading the hospitality industry in giving
guests the best night's sleep since we introduced the iconic
Heavenly® Bed more than 15 years ago," said Brian Povinelli, Global Brand Leader, Westin
Hotels & Resorts. "Since then Westin continues to innovate,
enhancing the sleep experience for guests: from in-room amenities
and dining options to meaningful partnerships that promote better
sleep before, during and after their stay with us."
In conjunction with these in-flight enhancements, Westin has
launched a new Sleep Well package, recognizing that people's
sleep routines are often most disrupted when on the road. In
addition to accommodations and late checkout, when available, the
package offers:
- A nightly credit for the Westin Sleep Well Menu, which
provides a curated selection of sleep-enhancing, nutritious
superfoods developed in partnership with SuperFoodsRx™ and
available through in-room dining.
- A $100 credit to enjoy a
relaxing spa treatment, tailored to soothe you into a good
night's sleep, via Westin's In-Room Spa offering or at the hotel's
spa where available.
- The brand's new bedside amenity, Sleep Well Lavender
Balm, infused with the essential oils of lavender and chamomile
and designed to ease tension and foster sound sleep.
Aiming to alleviate stress during, what is commonly known to be,
the busiest travel month of the year, Westin will also gift a
custom-designed, microfiber sleep mask and the Westin
Heavenly In-Flight Blanket to guests who book and experience
the Westin Sleep Well Package in the month of November.
Prices begin at $189, based on
availability and subject to change. For a full list of
participating hotels and to book the Westin Sleep Well package,

For travelers craving a better night's sleep at home too, The
