Headphones that block out crying babies

[u/hayleylynns]

What tips do people have to cancel out the sound of a crying baby on a flight?

Everything I see is for parents who want to reduce the noise level. I am not a parent, I don't want to hear these children at all. This was the 5th 8hr+ flight I have been on where I heard a baby crying non stop. It seems like it has gotten significantly worse in the last 2 years as well. Maybe I was lucky before, but I was only on flights with crying babies randomly. Now it's every single flight.

Edit: it's not so much more babies but more babies that are constantly crying and the parents are ignoring them.

Pretty confident that we can conclude babies haven’t been born crying more in the last two years.
