What are good pants to wear on a plane?

I always wear comfortable pants, leggings, or yoga pants when I fly. Mostly because I need to stay warm, but also for the practicality a pair of pants offers when you're dashing through airports or struggling with luggage. The best pants are soft and have an elastic waist. Bonus points for zipped pockets.
