Noise Cancelling Headphones - A Jettsetter's Dream Come True
I'm typically what people would call a jetsetter. There was once I had to fly from Dallas, Texas to LA for 3 hours before taking another flight to Hong Kong (and back) in 2 days! Just for a crucial business meeting. Although I love the travelling, trust me, flying for 20 hours non-stop can really be quite exhausting. Especially if you don't always have the comfort of travelling on the more expensive class class. The long hours. And not to forget the constant hissing of the aircraft engines. It just wears you out sometimes.
Looking at the situation, it's probably destined that I'll have to bear with the noise pollution on the plane. Pretty much as long as I'm required to travel. But a good friend's advice altered all that. He advocated getting a set of Bose Quiet Comfort noise cancelling headphones on flight. It cost a tidy sum but well, for the pleasure of the flying experience I go through now, it was definitely deserving of the price!
Noise Cancelling Headphones - What's That?
They are simply audio phones that use technology to reduce ambient noise through active noise control. Microphones in the noise ...
... canceling headphones releases acoustic wave to combat noise whenever they detect its presence.
One issue is that an over the headphone works much more effectively than the in-ear smaller earpieces. That probably means, frequent fliers who like to listen to the music while jogging or exercising may need to get a separate set of regular phones from the ones they bring onto the plane. But is the hassle worth it? Definitely!
How It Aids Frequent Fliers Like You
From what I can see, the headphones is a definitely lifesaver! Not only wasI able to enjoy a more comforting travelling experience, I get to listen to my lovely music without fighting with the noise from the engines. This is actually a very major concern, as I tend to combat the noise by bringing up the music's volume. I wasn't sure what was the effects of that on my hearing but since getting the noise cancelling headphones, my inclination to increase the volume had been greatly reduced.
In addition, on certain flights which allow travellers to watch movies or play video games, I find myself easily engaged in the plot or exhilaration without the annoying hissing from the aircraft engine. Actually, the headphones was so good in cutting back clatter that there were times when the flight attendent had to tap on my shoulder to arouse my attention. Ha!
Frankly, if you ask me whether there's anything I couldn't leave home without, other than my luggage & travelling documents, it has to be my noise cancelling headphones!
