Re: How to lower the noise inflight
I always carry a pair of custom made ear plugs (for times that the there are noisy pax's nearby) that reduce noise between 25-30 decibels.
It cost about $100. for good ear plugs, it's an invest if you travel a lot, and definetely worth every cent!
This year I've only had to use them 3 times when other pax were yelling.
