What are the logistics of wearing this on a flight?

It seems like it would take up a majority of your personal item space. As someone who only packs a personal item for most flights, that’s a hard sell.

Can you reliably plug it in? It seems like the battery doesn’t last long enough for a long haul flight, and for shorter flights where the battery would hold up, the bulk doesn’t seem worth it. Of course, on the long flights, I’d hope to sleep, and having a cumbersome VR headset seems like it would be more trouble than it’s worth vs just watching the screen in the seat back.

When you get to your destination, do you use it there, or does it just sit around like a neck pillow?

At the end of the day, it only makes sense if watching a movie on AVP gives you immense joy, which is the case for me.

If you can charge your phone, you can charge your vision pro. The battery itself can last any movie with no problem.
