The One Item That Makes Flying 100% More Enjoyable

By Sara McOmber Leave a Comment

One of the only things that makes long flights bearable is watching movies or TV shows to pass the time. But if you’re like us, you’ve probably fallen victim to a very specific DISASTER one too many times.

Inside an airplane

You board a plane, see that there are those little TVs on the backs of the seats, and rejoice that you’ll be able to comfortably watch a movie without draining your phone’s battery (or maybe you forgot to download any movies onto your phone at all — again, we’ve been there). You browse through the options, find one that you love, and then open your bag to pull out your headphones. But OH NO — they’re WIRELESS!

Most airplane entertainment systems do not connect to wireless headphones — so are you completely DOOMED? Do you have to pay for those terrible airplane headphones (provided they’re available at all)? Don’t worry! We’ve got the solution.

Get the Bluetooth Audio Transmitter on Amazon!

It’ll save the day!

What you need is a Bluetooth Audio Transmitter, and you can buy one on Amazon. You just plug in the transmitter where you would normally plug in headphones and voila! It’s now possible to use your wireless headphones.

How To Use the Bluetooth Transmitter

All you have to do is pair your headphones to the transmitter over Bluetooth, and you’re all set. This specific transmitter works with up to two sets of headphones, so you can even share with your seat buddy.

Bluetooth Transmitter Package

The transmitter works with any standard 3.5mm headphone jack, and it’s not just for airplane entertainment systems; it also works with computers, Nintendo Switch, Xbox and PlayStation controllers, treadmills, TVs, and more.

There’s a built-in battery, and it comes with a charging cord.

Bluetooth Transmitter Charging Cord

One charge provides up to 20 hours of listening time if it’s paired to one set of headphones or 15 hours if it’s paired with two. If you’ve got a super long flight, you’ll be relieved to know that it is usable while charging.
