All Nippon Airways (ANA), Japan’s largest airline will make Sony’s innovative noise-cancelling WH-1000XM3 headphones available to all first class passengers on international routes. It will provide versions of the headphones that have been specifically designed to meet cabin specifications, making them ideal for air travel.
These same headphones were initially introduced on the Airbus A380 FLYING HONU aircraft beginning in May 2019 and the positive reaction from passengers encouraged the airline to adopt them throughout its fleet.
“We are proud that our close relationship with Sony makes it possible for us to make the latest technology available for ANA passengers,” said Hideki Kunugi, executive vice president of ANA. “These advanced headphones will help improve the passenger experience by making our entire in-flight library of movies, music and other media more enjoyable.”
