Qatar Airlines recently made flying economy class a little bit easier by providing those fliers with name-brand products like Miradent dental kits and Institut Karité Paris lip balm, along with eye masks, earplugs and socks.

The items are part of the airline's economy kit, which follows on the heels of similar kits given out recently to premium passengers on short- and medium-distance flights.

"This will be a year of change for Qatar Airways travelers, with numerous upgrades to our on-board products and services, including our new economy class amenity kits," Rossen Dimitrov, vice president of the airline's Customer Experience department, said. "We like to continually surprise and delight our passengers in every class of cabin, and we believe that anyone traveling in economy class will be truly delighted when they discover these new amenity kits on board."

The bags are designed with the airline's "Going Places Together" slogan in mind, displaying images of some of the 150 destinations Qatar Airlines flies. New images will be featured every four months.
