About this product
Older aircraft cabins use a twin-prong headphone socket in the armrest – two small pins side by side rather than a single round jack. A standard 3.5 mm headphone plug does not fit it at all. If you have ever boarded with good headphones and discovered they were useless, this is why.
The adapter converts between the two. There is nothing to charge, nothing to pair and nothing to configure: it changes the plug shape and passes the audio through.
You need it less often than you once did. Most aircraft on routes out of Julius Nyerere now fit a single 3.5 mm jack, and newer cabins on the Gulf carriers increasingly have Bluetooth in the seat. But it is small and cheap, and the flight where you need one is always the long one.
It pairs naturally with our Bluetooth transmitter: twin-prong socket into this adapter, this into the transmitter, and your wireless earbuds work on an aircraft that was built before either existed.
