Meridian Audio, the award-winning British audio pioneer, is proud to announce a new partnership with United Airlines, setting a new standard for passenger wellbeing in the skies. The collaboration introduces a new Meridian-engineered headset, designed specifically to address the acoustic challenges of air travel and deliver a more comfortable, immersive, and wellness-focused inflight experience.
Drawing on decades of research into how people perceive sound, Meridian has developed a solution that helps reduce listening fatigue and promotes relaxation on board. The new headset features advanced noise cancellation, allowing passengers to enjoy in-flight entertainment at lower volumes with improved clarity—supporting a calmer, more restful travel experience.
Authentic, natural audio reproduction ensures passengers can fully enjoy the detail and emotion of complex soundtracks and performances, even within the ambient noise of the cabin. Enhanced vocal clarity makes dialogue and announcements easier to hear without strain, while rich, controlled bass creates a deeper sense of immersion—helping passengers feel more relaxed and connected throughout their journey.
“At Meridian, innovation has always been at the heart of who we are,” says John Buchanan, CEO of Meridian Audio. “This Meridian for United Airlines partnership embodies our vision for the future of sound – where advanced engineering meets human experience. By combining decades of acoustic research with a deep understanding of how people experience audio, we are transforming in-flight listening into an elevated, more immersive experience.”
