Flight Trauma

Hi

We are going to France in 2 weeks, flying with Easyjet. We did this 2 years ago and the flight home was late at night so my son was tired and the noise of the plane engines really upset him. Previously we have been to Oz with him 3 planes each way and no problems whatsoever. He is adament he isnt going and gets upset when we talk about it. I've tried all sorts of reasoning with him, bribery, talking about how much fun we had there last time and nothing seems to be swaying him at all. I don't want to end up with a meltdown at the airport, leaving him at home with grandparents or wasting the £600 spent on flights to drive instead! We also have 2 younger children who are really excited about going. My son is 7 years old. Any ideas anyone??/

Thanks

  • Our Sennheissers are very old and the nearest model today is the PXC 250-II. They are expensive but have lasted 8 years. I think the only other helpful suggestion I can make is that the on ear headphones tend to make the boys' ears very hot but the in ear are uncomfortable after a short time.
