With more people around the world resuming travel and using wireless headphones, often they find themselves having to use the airline's headphones instead of their own wireless headphones to connect to the airline entertainment system. At times, the airline's headphones are not cleaned properly,  have lower sound quality and are just not as comfortable as using your own. LinkIT have identified this issue, and created a device called LinkIT FlyConnect. It is a Bluetooth adaptor allowing users to connect their wireless headphones or speakers to any AUX devices such as the airline entertainment system. LinkIT FlyConnect will be released to the public for $49 each, however Backers can enjoy discounts ranging from 5%-30%. See the Rewards section for further details.

LinkIT FlyConnect can:

• Connect your own wireless headphones to airline entertainment systems 
• Connect your own wireless headphones or speakers to any AUX devices, for example, connecting a TV to Bluetooth Speakers
• Connect to two devices, and stream audio simultaneously

Edge-cutting Qualcomm CSR8675 Chipset

Latency control has been significantly controlled under 30 ms and a wide range of codecs is supported including SBC, aptX, aptX Low Latency, HD. It is crafted for a ease of connection and a better listening experience and a harmonious connection without dropouts.

Simply hold the pairing buttons to activate both LinkIT FlyConnect and your headset’s Bluetooth mode. Then select the corresponding device name on the display and they will connect seamlessly in a flash. The display will reflect the device's connection status, battery life and the codecs being used.
