I'm wondering if the headphones Delta gives you in BE are any good. I've never actually used them because I always cary my QC15s with me.
If they're good headphones, I'll just read on my short flights and not worry about bringing mine with me. But if they're crappy headphones, I'll certainly bring the good ones with me.
The NC headphones are not too bad, though your bose are clearly better. Main problem is the 2-pin connector, if you touch (by accident or when moving) it you have A LOT of LOUD distortions for a couple of seconds. They are also slightly uncomfy when you are sleeping on your side but the feather pillow may compensate for that. Since you're on a rather short flight, I would say they are bearable ...
