Work on Planes and Super Easy to Travel With

Travelling all the time, you learn to lighten the load of what you have to carry. I liked my huge earphones with all the sponge and cushion but my ears started to chafe after a while ... then I borrowed these little tiny ones from my brother one day when I forgot mine and didn't want to sit 5 hrs on a plane without iPod relief. I immediately went out and bought myself a pair! I could not believe it when I found out they were less than $30 (my other pair was over $150). I can drop them in a pocket or purse without having to "make room" for them. They do cancel noise. I'm surprised to read some people thought they didn't. They forget to switch the box on? Works on planes, works to block out office noise, even blocks out the constant, high pitched screaming of the kid next door.

On a transatlantic flight, I admit I'd have to take both earphones. One starts to bother my earlobe at the top, the other begins to bother inside my ear after a few hours. I have small ears so the multiple rubber things helped me find a size that fit (the iPod style earbuds are too big for my ears).
