Apple’s more expensive AirPods Max may have best-in-class noise cancellation, but if comfort is paramount, the QC 45s are worth a look. They fit larger ears better and have a more neutral sound signature, but they lack an EQ tool for making adjustments.

A full charge gives you about 20 hours of listening time, which should be plenty on most trips.
