As someone who flies a few times a year, I do find it kind of soul-crushing, because of the physical discomfort of being crammed into a small space for 6 hours straight.
But I suspect a headset would just make this worse; the otherwise-mild physical discomfort of wearing it would compound with the plane’s discomfort. Also, I’d be worried about disturbing adjacent passengers. And my backpack has little enough space already without a giant headset inside.
…And yet I did buy a Vision Pro, for mostly unrelated reasons. (Hasn’t arrived yet.) So I’m looking forward to at least giving the airplane AR experience a try, for the novelty if nothing else.
- ajdude 3y agoYou should definitely give it a try. I don't have the Vision Pro, but I do have an xreal air. I used it on a seven hour transatlantic flight in economy class. I had to cover on so I couldn't see anything but the screens, but everything around me kind of just disappeared and I watched my movies, did my budget, did some writing, and didn't even feel like I was on a plane. It's worth noting that the xreal air has a form factor of sunglasses instead of a VR headset, so it's much later on my face so maybe that was a factor.
