  • Our take on the Avantree Relay Premium Airplane

    The Avantree Relay Premium Airplane is a battery-powered Bluetooth 5.3 transmitter that plugs into a 3.5 mm headphone jack, built mainly for in-flight entertainment systems. It sends audio to your own Bluetooth headphones with aptX Adaptive, aptX HD, aptX LL and SBC support, and its roughly 0.5 oz body fits in a seat pocket. Compared with basic airline adapters, it adds low-latency codecs and a longer 33 ft range, but it is a one-job device: no USB, no optical and no Wi-Fi. It suits frequent flyers who want to use their own noise-cancelling headphones on planes.

    Questions and answers

    Does it work with any Bluetooth headphones?
    Yes. It pairs with standard Bluetooth headphones and earbuds. The aptX Adaptive, HD and LL codecs only engage if your headphones support them; otherwise it falls back to SBC.
    Can I use it with a TV or laptop?
    Yes. Any device with a 3.5 mm headphone or AUX output can feed it, including in-flight screens, TVs and laptops.
    How long does the battery last?
    Avantree rates it for roughly a full long-haul flight, but owners report it needs recharging between trips. Charge it before you fly.
    Does it also receive Bluetooth audio?
    No. It is a transmitter only: it takes a wired 3.5 mm signal and sends it to Bluetooth headphones.
    What is in the box?
    The transmitter, a charging cable and a 3.5 mm audio cable for connecting to the seat jack.
    How does it compare with a wired airline adapter?
    A wired adapter is cheaper and needs no charging, but it locks you to wired headphones. The Relay adds wireless freedom and low-latency codecs at the cost of battery management.
    Where is the Avantree Relay Premium Airplane cheapest?
    At Best Buy, for $34.99, as of our latest check.
