Earplugs have come a long way from their neon orange days on construction sites and in swimming pools. Drowning out unwanted noise is now a luxury travelers need in order to sleep, relax, listen to music or focus on their work without distractions.

 

Earpieces like Hush allow listeners to block out the sounds around them and choose what they want to hear from ocean sounds to white noise. The Hush app allows users to choose their sounds, duration and volume and even set alarms to wake up without disturbing everyone around them.

 

The actual headphones are small, wireless ear buds that fit snugly into the ear. The company assures seven hours of battery life after a single charge.Their charging device is compact for easy travel.

 

Hush Earpieces are designed for sleeping, so the buds are secure and comfortable. They run for $150 and can even be tracked by anapp if they ever get lost.

 

For travelers who want to hear their music or devices with no outside distractions, Bose offers QuietComfort Headphones for $299.95. These headphones come in classic black or a variety of colors. These award-winning headphones are large and cover the entire ear, so they have a sense of style, but are not meant for sleeping.
