My experience with noise cancelling headsets has been that they are great for background airplane noise, and not so good with screaming babies and their parents rattling banter. It seems unlikely that we are going to be protected from people on their cell phones.


The latest headsets are quite adequate at cancelling out voices, especially if you are playing music (or just white noise).


I like to use noise cancelling headphones over earplugs. It seems to work fairly well for me.


I use both at the same time.


That's what I was trying to say but I can see how my comment was ambiguous.
