I usually use Sennheiser noise cancelling headphones, but when I found myself faced with a 4 hour flight and having forgotten to pack the Sennheisers I bought a pair of these at the airport. They are not great but they are a huge improvement over standard airline headsets. I recommend them to anyone who is thinking of getting noise cancelling headphones but balks at the $200+ price of other brands - try these out first, then when you realise the benefits of noise cancellisation on airline flights you can buy a better pair and donate these to the kids.
