SAVE 12%: The Bose QuietComfort Ultra headphones are on sale at Amazon for $379, down from the standard price of $429. That's a savings of $50.


You have the flights booked, hotels picked out, and you snagged the dog sitter who is always booked. Now the only thing left to consider before you head off on summer vacation is how you'll manage the journey. Whether it's a 10-hour flight or a three-hour train ride, noise-cancelling headphones are a must and the most comfortable pair on the market is on sale today.

As of June 2, the Bose QuietComfort Ultra headphones are on sale at Amazon for $379, marked down from the standard price of $429. That's a 12% discount that takes $50 off the price.

What's the point in owning headphones that aren't comfortable enough to wear all day? Especially when it comes to travel, you deserve to have reliable headphones that perform well in sound quality but also come with a comfortable fit. And that's why today's deal on the Bose QuietComfort Ultra is perfect for those preparing for summer travel. On the list of Mashable's recommended noise-cancelling headphones for travel, the Bose QuietComfort Ultra earn the coveted number one spot.

Mashable's Lead Shopping Reporter Bethany Allard said, "They're durable but still supremely comfortable. I've worn them with earrings all day and on a five-hour flight while wearing glasses, and not once did I experience any soreness or discomfort."

Mashable Shopping Reporter Samantha Mangino also loves the Bose QuietComfort Ultras. In her review, she mentioned a fit that wasn't ever uncomfortable, even with hoop earrings. "They cup your ears for a secure fit but won't cause aching ears. If you're wearing headphones from the beginning of your commute, all throughout the workday, and until the moment you get back home, these are a worthy investment for comfort, not to mention battery life."

The battery life is also commendable, getting about 24 hours of playtime per charge on Quiet or Aware mode and 18 hours with Immersive Audio. That'll be perfect for summer travel plans.

While they're on sale for $50 off, snag the Bose QuietComfort Ultra headphones at Amazon. You have major options when it comes to colorway preferences and your ears will be thankful you made the investment to grab a pair with plush earcups.
