FAQ

When choosing headphones for flying, look for features such as active noise cancellation to reduce engine and cabin noise, comfortable ear cushions for long wear, and a long battery life to last throughout your flight. Wireless connectivity and a compact, foldable design can also be convenient for travel.

Both wireless and wired headphones have their advantages on airplanes. Wireless headphones offer freedom of movement and convenience, while wired headphones can be plugged directly into the in-flight entertainment system. Some headphones come with detachable cables, giving you the flexibility to use both options.

Most in-flight entertainment systems require a wired connection. However, you can use a Bluetooth transmitter (sold separately) to connect your Bluetooth headphones to the airplane’s audio jack. Some newer airlines may offer Bluetooth connectivity, but it's best to check before your flight.

Over-ear headphones with plush, memory foam ear cushions tend to be the most comfortable for long flights, as they distribute pressure evenly and help block out ambient noise. Lightweight, ergonomic designs are also ideal for extended listening sessions.

Yes, noise-cancelling headphones are highly effective at reducing the constant background noise of airplane engines and cabin activity. They use active technology to counteract external sounds, making your listening experience more enjoyable and helping you rest during your flight.
