Airplane Seat Adapter

The Scosche BTTC-218 Relay connects to airline seatback screens through a 3.5mm AUX jack and streams audio wirelessly to Bluetooth headphones. It is built for travellers who want to use their own AirPods, Bose, or other wireless headphones instead of the airline's wired units. The device supports dual-link pairing so two listeners can share the same in-flight entertainment. It is not a receiver and cannot pair with phones or tablets.

Transmitter-Only Limitation

This unit functions solely as a Bluetooth transmitter; it does not receive audio from smartphones, tablets, or TVs. It is incompatible with hearing aids, musical instruments, and any scenario requiring real-time monitoring or two-way communication. The 3.5mm input is the only way to feed audio into the device. Buyers who want to stream from a phone to a speaker or add Bluetooth to a home stereo need a different type of adapter.

25-Hour Battery Life

A single charge delivers up to 25 hours of continuous playtime, covering long-haul flights and extended travel days. Built-in volume controls and a clear battery indicator let you manage listening without reaching for the seatback screen. The package includes a dual 3.5mm airplane adapter so no separate purchase is required. Firmware updates are supported to improve stability and headphone compatibility over time.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the single or dual 3.5mm adapter for my flight?

Use the included dual 3.5mm adapter for most airline seat screens; it plugs straight into the two-pin jack without extra parts.

What does the 25hr playtime mean on a long-haul trip?

The built-in battery lasts up to 25 hours per charge, covering most intercontinental flights with power left for layovers.

How does aptX-Adaptive affect audio over Bluetooth?

It adjusts bitrate in real time for stable, low-latency sound, so movies stay in sync and music keeps detail even in a crowded cabin.
