Headphones in Club World

I'm flying SYD-LHR soon in Club World and am wondering if I bring my Bose QS35 headphones with me? I see on the BA website it says noise cancelling headphones are provided. What type are they are are the wireless or with a cord as I will have my ipad loaded up to watch on the flight.

Thanks!

Unbranded corded and mediocre. Its good enough for me but if you are used to some excellent ones and care bring your own.

Definitely take your Bose, I have those ones, and use them always other than the shortest of shorthaul then I'll use my AirPods. Remember the cable if you want to easily plug into the onboard IFE

The comfort of these is far better than the onboard ones

Also worth looking at the bluetooth dongle in case you want to use your Airpods with the IFE. I use the Anker Soundsync Bluetooth Receiver (24.99 at time of writing via Amazon) and works well.

I actually went and got some Kebudz AirStrapz for my airpods. The last time I was in F, the service was excellent. However, I managed to drop one of my airpods into the seat when talking to the crew, who then had to rescue it. There's probably not as much of a danger of that in CW though.

I haven't tried them yet, but I suspect they work "good enough".

I always take my Bose bluetooth headphones with me to use with my iPad, and use the Bose cable to connect with the IFE system on the plane.
