Can it be plugged into an airplane sound system to listen to movies or music and how comfortable are they?. Can you leave them on for a long time?

Depends on the airplane soundsystem. If the sound system accepts standard 3.5mm jacks then yes, otherwise you'll need an adapter. I leave mine on for a very long time (all day at work ~ 9hours/day) and have no problems.

I'm pretty sure you can plug it into the plane. I can plug this into my iphone, and I can use my iphone headphones on the plane so I'm pretty sure you can. They're comfortable, personally I don't like to use headphones for too long.

If you aren't listening to a media (cd, movie), you will still be able to hear some sound with these headphones on. If you want total silence, I would get noise cancelling. Our daughter never really had a problem with the airplane noise, in fact, it made her naps on the plane longer! :-) good luck!

They are not noise cancelling, so if you are looking to eliminate plane background noise, these probably won't do it for you.On the other hand, if you want a portable (fold up set) that you can use to wear that are comfortable, and mask outside noise with your music, these are pretty good headphones.

Wearing them is confortable than other types. but for 8 hours who knows. Noise cancelling is NO. The switch just makes the volume louder. Sadly i think really good ear buds drown out more sounds.

Never used them on a plane, but even though they are 'closed-back', they are not designed for noise cancellation. Nor will they completely prevent audio from being leaked to others around you at higher volumes. Although....one could humorously argue that the clarity of the high frequency range response may very well drown out high pitched engine noise. Honestly, for noise cancellation, you probably want any decent set of isolation headphones. These ones are solely designed for clarity and reference.Good Luck!

These don't fit in everyone's ears the same way. For me they would not help on an airplane, since they don't rest snugly into my ears. (These are also not truly noise canceling, if that's what you're looking for.)

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.

Hi Brenda, this headphones doesn't have the noise cancelling feature but can be used on an airplane but it will not totally cancel out the noise. - Ella

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.

Hi Jennifer, You can hear music with these in 2 ways: with the noise cancelling on (which will reduce the surrounding sounds but will consume the baterry) and with the noise cancelling off (which will work just like a regular headphones)Keep in mind that the pads are not very soft so is uncomfortable to wear them for several hrs.

No, these are really not for portable use. Inner ear headphones are your best bet for planes.

I couldn't. Instead try Walgreen's soft silicone disposable (but reusable) earplugs. They're sticky and go on the ear canal rather than in it, like the foam ones do. I wear them on long plane flights. For sleep you could lie on your side and they still wouldn't be uncomfortable. With the 3M earmuffs you'd have to lie flat on your back to even have a hope of sleeping. The Walgreens type come in a hard plastic case in packs of 12 BTW.

I wear them when riding my mower and when using the leaf blower. Some noise comes through, but I can still hear my music fine. They are bulkier than noise canceling but comfortable. For the price they are worth trying for flight travel. Hope this helps.

Yes, you can listen to music, but in my Review I was referring Price vs. Sound Quality, also lets say your on a plane & you turn on your music, the headphones produce a noise so you'll only hear your music & not the plane's engine or a reduced level, to make your music the primary sound heard. if you don't want the noise cancelling feature off, click the button & you can listen in regular mode...

They muffle outside noises, but do not block them out. I don't believe they would be comfortable for 8 hours. Suggest paying more and getting headphones which will cancel outside noises.

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.
