Do you get pajamas in United Polaris business class?

Slippers are available by request on all international flights, along with pajamas for flights scheduled 14+ hours. Ask your flight attendant if you'd like them. Pajamas are provisioned for about half of the eligible seats.



In 2026, United Polaris business class continues to offer its famous "pajamas on request," but their availability is strictly limited by the duration of the flight. To receive a set of the high-quality, 100% cotton pajamas, your flight must be longer than 14 hours. This typically applies to "ultra-long-haul" routes such as San Francisco to Singapore or Newark to Johannesburg. If your flight meets this criteria, you should ask your flight attendant for a pair as soon as you board, as they are distributed on a "first-come, first-served" basis and often run out before the cabin is fully settled. On shorter international Polaris flights (under 14 hours), you will still receive the premium Saks Fifth Avenue bedding, which includes a plush duvet and a cooling gel pillow, along with an amenity kit from Therabody that features skincare products designed to combat the dry cabin air. While the pajamas are a coveted "souvenir" of the Polaris experience, the focus remains on the "Polaris 2.0" seat features, including sliding privacy doors and high-speed Starlink Wi-Fi for all premium passengers.
