Unless you’re lucky enough to land a seat in business or first class with cushy lie-flat seats, sleeping on an airplane can seem nearly impossible. Between cabin service, talkative seat-mates and crying babies, most of us are lucky to get five solid minutes with our eyes closed, let alone hours of sleep. Well now we’ve found a product that just might help solve that problem. The new Bose noise-masking sleepbuds ($249.95) have one job – to help you fall and stay asleep.
The buds may look like cordless headphones, but don’t be fooled, these sleepbuds don’t stream music or have the acoustic noise-cancelling the brand is known for. Instead, they only connect to the accompanying app which comes pre-loaded with 10 “sleeptracks” that provide you with soothing sounds meant to mask any unwanted noises like snoring, loud talking or crying.
Just choose a soothing track from the app like crashing waves or a crackling fire, adjust your volume level and determine how long you want to use your sleepbuds during the night. Then allow the sleepbuds to lull you into a sleep so peaceful that you’ll wake up at your destination refreshed and ready for a day of sightseeing and fun. As a bonus, the small carrying case also acts as a charger, so you won’t take up much space in your already stuffed carry-on bag.
So say goodbye to dreadful, insomnia plagued flights, and hello to some of the best sleep of your life. Thanks us later!
