The Earbuds actually have an airplane cabin noise option as one of their 10 sounds. I think you would need a more robust product to block out airplane noise altogether. Headphones with a noise-cancelling option. I've got Bang & Olufsen Beoplay H8 headphones which are the best at that.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Ironically, one of the sounds is the sound of an aircraft engine. That said, with a variety of sounds that are offered, and the option to change the volume, one of them should help you.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.These will probably not do that as they limit the volume to prevent damage to your hearing.

The Noise-masking sleepbuds are engineered to block outside noise by playing soothing sounds that are stored on the buds. Masking works because of the way different sounds combine in our inner ears; if they have the right match of frequencies and one (the masking sound) is just enough louder than another (the disturbing sound), your inner ear and brain cannot detect the disturbing sound. If you are primarily interested in using the product while flying, we would recommend headphones with active noise cancellation, such as the QuietComfort 20. Our ANC technology is engineered with frequent flyers in mind, and you can play all of your favorite music during the flight as well. Please check them out here: https://bit.ly/2DpG84I. We hope this helps! Have a great weekend. Jesse - Bose Support
