With an Audible membership, travelers can enjoy audiobooks and podcasts during flights. The membership offers access to thousands of titles, including bestsellers and new releases, making it a convenient option for those looking to pass the time while flying.

Audible members can select one bestseller or new release each month. "Just don't forget to have that phone in airplane mode!" Additionally, the service includes a Sleep Collection with stories designed to help listeners relax.

A free 30-day trial is available for those interested in trying Audible without commitment. This trial includes one bestseller or new release for permanent collection, plus access to all included titles. If satisfied, users do not need to take any action as the membership will automatically continue at a paid rate after 30 days.
