Firstchoice/earphones

[bawden2]

Hi does anyone know if you have to buy earphones in economy with firstchoice. I know we did with airtours.
Also can you carry gas straightners in your checked luggage. I know you can not carry butane lighters.
Thanks.:wiggle:

We went with them a couple of months ago and they just handed them out for free.

Can you use your own headphones? I usually do when I go on a flight!

Most have the double headed jack thing but plugging my Senheisser 500's worked for me last year!

If this is a naughty comment and you're not actually allowed to do it then ignore this post! :blush:

It's fine! you're allowed to use your own headphones :)

I like the Sen'500s for home, for the plane I use BOSE noise cancelling ones. Stupid price :( but I turn them on and the engine noise disappears (well down to a very low hum at least). Worth every penny!

They sound great Keith, i may invest in some of those.:)

I can't explain adequately how good they are :lol:

People kept telling me to get the bose quietcomfort 2 headphones. I thought yeah yeah, bit quieter that's all but no! They really do analyse the outside noise like the engine noise and cancel it out almost altogether! *truly* amazing.

I wonder if they fit into the TCD aircraft seats, we are sunshine first, second thoughts i better not ask that might cause a riot.:wink:

:lol:

good question.... they've fitted every aircraft I've been on in the last few years. They come with a 3.5mm adapter (normal size) and with an adapter to change it to the "2 plugs" type which the airplanes used to use.

I reckon they'd work just fine!

Thanks, might invest, got lots to do and so little time to do it. I see that your off again in just a few days time. We will be there at the same time, we might just see ya.:wink:

Just myself and my wife. We've been rushing round this weekend buying all sorts of wetwipes, antiseptic wipes for the room, shampoo, suntan lotion blah blah :lol:

We'll still be there night before trying to pack, it ALWAYS happens

[Catherine]

Dead right, it does always happen. The kids are back to school this week, :ohyes: :ohyes: so when they go back we can concentrate more on the packing. I do shifts so at the moment i am still in my night shift mode.

Happy Packing keith:) :) :)

I've got some Sony Fontopia headphones now:

they do a pretty good job of cancelling noise! If I was a little more flush however, I'd be buying some of these...

Again a crazy price, but who else can say they've had £150 in each ear?!

:p

[Keith]

neither of those are noise cancelling though and it makes SUCH a difference on a plane it really really does.
