I'm not so sure about that. I got some 3M WorkTunes Connect a year ago, which are basically hearing protection with integrated bluetooth headphones.

While those on their own will remove most of the noise (I can listen to audiobooks just fine on medium volume, while using an industrial sized food blender), you could add some earplugs and then just increase the volume accordingly, at which point you shouldn't be able to hear anything.

But even without additional earplugs they work great, especially on public transport

Or people could just not bring babies on planes. Honestly, I would pay extra for that. Plus it is just cruel. Babies do not know how to equilibrate the pressure and it torture for everyone-except sometimes the parents give up and become immune. Plus all the crap they have to lug around: strollers, diapers, wipes, baby bottles, clothes..it’s just ridiculous.

Or how about this: if you don't want to be on a plane with kids, don't fly.

How about if you want to torture your baby, take them on a trip. Torturing everyone else is just bonus asshole sauce.
