This to me seems more about promoting the partnership with BA than the product itself. After a brief peruse, I cannot see anything on their website about the product, just the partnership.

I get it, most of us want to see new products that we are interested in and Meridian want to promote themselves, but I think any new product announcement in this case is a little up in the air due to its exclusiveness with the partner...

Thankfully, they seem not to be open backed. But I can't but help wonder if these are given out for free to keep (so some will get a suitcase full on a return long haul trip) or if they are reusable, how are they kept hygienic.

Long time since I have flown with airline headphones, but they use to have disposable ear pads. Not sure how disposable these ear pads look - I am sure that first class passengers will not tolerate big plastic sweaty pads so interested to see how comfortable and sustainable the hygene solution is.

Linstol who seem to be the manufacturers, promote sustainability.
