Do these work well on a plane?

They are doing fine in the car on the highway. I didn't try them on the plane though.

Yes they do. A little uncomfortable until you get used to them. I took two flights of about the same duration, first one without: big headache, second one with: felt great at end of flight.

They don't completely cancel out all the noise. If you want a cheap option, it's good. But if you want better noise cancellation, I'd go with a higher end headphone. I have to turn noise cancelling on plus play music for it to drown out any sounds around me.

no chance on plane yet, but guess not. the NC simply does not work, no difference whether to switch on or off.

From my experience, these would be about same effectiveness of any passive closed headphones. The noise cancellation is not very effective. I fly frequently with Bose Quietcomfort series headphones which are the best for planes.

Patricia, I don't know...if it doesn't say on the listing, I would contact the company and ask. I bought them for an overseas air flight and they worked fine.

They are not noise canceling headphones. However with an open air design incorporated into these headphones along with the large cushioned ear cups. They offer a really comfortable fit with not much ear fatigue after several hours of listening. Most ambient noises like talking, the tv, being in the car or out on the street is completely eliminated by the design of the ear cups. I have not used them on a plane yet. But I would assume that the hum of a passenger airline engine would not be much of a factor in disturbing the sound quality eathier. Hope this helps in your decision.

We used them with the iPad for our toddler on the plane and they worked great. I tried them on and could hear everything fine.

and I used the headphones on a flight to and from Australia, fromt he east coast of the USA. Not too many flights int he world longer than that. One set of batteries got me all the way there and back and I had them working with the noise cancellation on the entire time.

Unfortunately I think it depends on the airline - some still use an odd two prong type of jack. And while these are good headphones for the price, they really are somewhat bass heavy and I don't think they would be ideal for a plane. If you are flying a lot, you seriously may want to consider decent noise cancellation headphones. Using headphones on planes really isn't ideal anyway because people wind up cranking the volume too much and it can damage your hearing. Decent noise cancellation headphones cut out some of the loud droning noise that you hear constantly while in a plane or pretty much any kind of vehicle.

Yes. I've used these on a overseas flight, and listening to media easily drowned out the engine noise. Haven't tried on a phone call, but I'm confident that they would hold their own.

My son had no problem using them on our flight to California. They work with his i-pod too.

Yes, they fit the earphone jacks on planes. I used them on an international flight.

These are great but I would not recommend them for use on a plane because sound will leak in and out. So you will hear both the noise of the plane and your neighbors will be able to hear what you are listening to. Instead I would recommend in-ear buds, noise canceling headphones, or closed back headphones.

I have. Their size is a little tough for long flights, as they slip around on the ear a bit, making it tough to sleep. The sound quality is fine, though. I've never really believed that true Noise-cancelling was all that necessary as long as you have good coverage in an over-ear set.

Yes, they work beautifully for that. And better quality than the ones the airplanes supply. (My kids used them on the airplane.)

They worked great for my 2 year old on the plane. When she got sick of wearing them on her ears the speaker part will lay flat so I could just put them around her neck and she could listen that way. You will need an adapter to plug into the airplane though.

Def fine for a plane. My son said they were great and that was the primary purpose for them. Never a complaint

They do good on flights, even though they do not have noise cancellation, with music on and a good seal, they block out ambient noise well.

Yes they do, but because they are a bit sticky, you wouldn't sleep with them. On a plane, fine.
