If I had to recommend one single item as the absolute must have for an airplane, it would be these. These sound cancelling headphones are worth absolutely every penny and since I got mine a few years ago, I’ve never gotten on a plane without them. These are the Bose QuietComfort Noise Cancelling Headphones. I won’t try to tell you otherwise, they are not inexpensive, with the newest model costing a little under $300.
However I was just as skeptical of the price. I laughed at myself for ever doubting once I started using them. They are nothing short of amazing. You really have no idea how loud an airplane is until you put these on, and then take them off to compare. Engine noise, annoying passengers, that guy who just won’t shut up on the red eye flight… and the big one… SCREAMING BABIES.
Put these one, flip on the noise cancelling switch and add some music. Babies can scream their brains out for all I care. Doesn’t bother me at all. They also work great for loud bus rides or really just any situation. The sound itself is crystal clear and can be used for any type of activity when you want to listen to some good music. If you fly even a few times a year, I think these are worth it.
They are of a high quality that is sturdy and come in a solid case to protect them. The Bose QuietComfort Headphones have my absolute highest recommendation. Pick them up, you will not be disappointed.
