      Hi MarcosR,

      It’s rewarding to hear that your WH-1000XM6 headphones performed so exceptionally during your 16-hour flight!

      We specifically engineered this model with long-distance travel in mind, ensuring that the noise-canceling technology can effectively silence cabin pressure and engine hum for extended periods. Knowing that the battery life held up through such a long journey while maintaining total comfort is a testament to our commitment to both stamina and ergonomic design. We are delighted that you could stay immersed in your audio from takeoff to landing without any interruptions.

      Thank you for making Sony part of your travel essentials.

      Regards,
