19 Best Eye Masks Earplugs Headphones for Sleeping on Planes

We found the best headphones, eye masks, ear plugs, neck pillows, and more for sleeping on flights in economy coach class. Including Bose headphones, Trtl, NapAnywhere and Nap Sofa pillows, Kiehl’s serum, Swanwick blue-light-blocking glasses, etc.
Winter says he never steps on a plane without his NapAnywhere pillow. “It cradles your shoulder and neck so you can wear it on either side, and holds your head up softly if you don’t have a window seat.” Plus, it folds up to the size of a Frisbee when not in use.
Although it’s bulkier than other pillows, Winter says, if space is no concern the Neck Sofa is “far and away the best one.” Covered in soft velvet it’s the pillow’s neck brace-like inner structure that ensures proper alignment and support, but also prevents it from folding down to a packable size. It can be comfortably worn in a number of different positions depending on how you like to rest your head.
“I am in love with these headphones. I originally hesitated because of the cost, but because I travel so much, and use two cell phones (one for business and one for personal), I decided to bite the bullet and hope for the best. These do not disappoint! I have worn them on various flights, and they have done a great job of canceling out the crying kids while I listen to music. I work from home, and these are also great for canceling out construction work going on outside. I have successfully paired both my work phone and my personal phone at the same time to these headphones, and it works perfectly. I can listen to music on my personal phone but still be connected for calls on my work phone — and, of course, the sound is incredible. Bose really is the best for that. I don’t know why I waited so long to buy these. They’re wonderful.”
“This is an amazing product for the price. They have all the features you are looking for with a pair of headphones for work: primarily noise-canceling and a huge battery life for the wireless. Also because of the price, you will use them more than being your cherished pair of $500 headphones. These will be the workhorse ones you feel free to bang around a bit.”
Winter always keeps foam earplugs ready to go in his travel bag. They’re both very affordable and effective at quieting down the sounds around you.
We’re also fans of this Everlane cashmere V-neck. Because of the relaxed fit you can easily put it on over whatever you’re wearing and take it off as the cabin temperature changes.
“Once you get settled in your 17-inch-wide seat, change into cashmere socks,” says Gerba. It’s a small step you can take for instant coziness. She likes Toast’s socks made from recycled cashmere.
This set of two pairs of cashmere socks — one solid and one festive — would make a good gift for a visiting far-flung relative’s trip home.
The final step in Gerba’s ritual of settling in for a long flight’s sleep is to “wrap something around you for complete, cocoon-like immersion.” White + Warren’s super-soft wrap can double as a blanket — and a scarf when you get to your destination.
Besides giving a boost to dehydrated in-flight skin, Colayera likes that this serum’s soothing scent helps her fall asleep. “I dab this on my face when I get on the plane as the lavender essential oil is calming and lulls me into sleep,” she says. “I also reapply when I land so I am refreshed, shiny and ready for the adventure that awaits.”
