Reply to comment by OldManChino in eli5: Why do most airlines still use 2-pin audio jacks for the in-flight entertainment systems on their planes? by JJGLC92

They should probably just sell or give away adapters, seems like they should be cheaper in bulk even than headphones. And people could use their own headphones.

Tbf I'm talking about 20 years ago, so I have no idea what they do nowadays (I only fly easyJet within Europe), regardless I'd just use my phone and BT headphones whether it was a short haul Europe flight or a long haul anywhere else flight

My Sennheiser headset came with a dual pin adapter to 3.5mm.
