    Idk. But from my experience, it’s usually something like 20 people (me included). If you made that the default way to connect, I think more people would use them.

    Or maybe it’s not an issue, idk. I don’t know a ton about Bluetooth and airplanes.

      I’ve been on budget flights where in flight infotainment was an app on your phone that connects to a media server on the plane itself. Everyone was using Bluetooth and there are no issues.

      I would expect a plan to have a lot more than 20 people watching something on their phone with AirPods (or a clone thereof). Just about everyone that’s watching or listening to something on their phone nowadays is using BT headphones, because most phones don’t have 3.5mm jacks anymore.
