I was looking to buy Apple's Lightning to 3.5mm Audio Cable (1.2m), so that i can connect my AirPods Max to the on board entertainment, as AirPods Max is listed as compatible with the cable on the Apple website.

Before I buy as the cable is quite pricy, does anyone know if this does indeed work?
 
Another option is a bluetooth transmitter/receiver. The standard is the AirFly system but this is around the same price as that cable. The other option is a Ugreen system that is much cheaper. These systems also need charging, but only you can decide whether cable-free is a better option that bluetooth.

I’ve had the cable now so that’ll do me - I’m not too bothered about it being cable free tbh as I’ll only be using it on the plane. Thanks for those options too!
