\nConnect to the Airport\u2019s Hearing Loop<\/strong>\u2014To help hearing device users hear announcements more clearly, many airports have induction loop systems, which produce a wireless signal that devices with telecoils can pick up. Remember to switch your hearing devices to the \u201cT\u201d setting, and you\u2019ll be good to go.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>
\n\u00a0<\/span>
\nWear Your Devices During the Flight<\/strong>\u2014When you hear the flight attendant say, \u201cPlease turn off all electronic devices and stow them in your seat pocket,\u201d you don\u2019t have to! This rule doesn\u2019t apply to hearing devices. While it can be tempting to take a vacation from your devices while on board the aircraft, they make it easier for you to interact with flight staff, chat with your seatmates and hear the captain. In-flight announcements can be difficult to hear even while wearing devices, so let the flight staff know that you have hearing loss and ask them to come directly to you to relay any critical information face to face.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
