Product Overview

The Twelve South AirFly SE is a compact Bluetooth audio transmitter built for people who want wireless audio freedom from any device with a standard 3.5mm headphone jack. Whether you’re streaming movies on a long-haul flight, catching up on shows at a hotel, working out to music on gym equipment, or gaming on a console without Bluetooth support, the AirFly SE bridges the gap between wired audio sources and your favorite wireless headphones. It effortlessly connects AirPods, wireless earbuds, or any Bluetooth-enabled headphones to systems that don’t natively support wireless audio—eliminating the need for tangled cords and airline-issued earbuds. Designed with travelers, fitness enthusiasts, and home users in mind, this pocket-sized adapter delivers reliable, high-quality sound wherever you go. Its intuitive operation and durable build make it a dependable companion for daily routines and adventures alike.

Key Features

Wireless Freedom – Instantly turn any 3.5mm audio output into a Bluetooth source. Stream audio from airplane seatback screens, hotel TVs, treadmills, stationary bikes, gaming consoles, or home stereos directly to your AirPods or wireless headphones—no cords required.
Extended Battery Life – Offers over 20 hours of continuous playback on a single charge, easily covering long international flights or multi-day trips without recharging. The AirFly SE supports pass-through charging via USB-C, so you can keep using it even while it’s plugged in—ideal for extended movie marathons or overnight travel.
Compact and Portable Design – Lightweight and small enough to fit in a pocket, purse, or carry-on, it’s engineered for mobility. Its minimal footprint ensures it won’t add bulk to your travel kit, making it a go-to accessory for frequent flyers, commuters, and gym-goers.
Seamless Bluetooth Connectivity – Pairs quickly and reliably with your existing Bluetooth headphones or earbuds. Once paired, the connection is stable and responsive, with minimal latency—perfect for watching videos or playing games without audio lag.
Intuitive Volume Controls – Built-in physical buttons allow you to raise or lower volume directly on the device. This means you don’t need to fumble with your phone, TV remote, or gym machine interface—just adjust the sound to your preference with a simple press.
Battery Life Indicator – A clear LED indicator displays the remaining charge level, so you always know when it’s time to plug in. This helps prevent unexpected power loss during critical moments, like mid-flight or mid-workout.
Versatile Use Cases – Compatible with a wide range of 3.5mm audio sources, including commercial airplanes, hotel room TVs, cardio machines at the gym, gaming systems like Nintendo Switch or PlayStation, and legacy stereo equipment. It’s a flexible solution for home, travel, fitness, and entertainment.

Benefits & Use Cases

The Twelve South AirFly SE excels in everyday situations where wired audio is impractical or uncomfortable. On flights, it lets you use your personal noise-canceling headphones or AirPods with the in-flight entertainment system—avoiding the discomfort and poor sound quality of disposable airline earbuds. At the gym, simply plug it into a treadmill, elliptical, or bike with a headphone jack to enjoy your own playlist or podcast privately, without disturbing others. It’s also ideal for watching late-night TV in bed without waking a partner, or for gaming on older consoles that lack built-in Bluetooth. The ability to use the device while charging ensures uninterrupted listening, whether you’re on a 12-hour flight or binge-watching a series. Its compact size means it slips easily into a toiletry bag, backpack, or jacket pocket, always ready when you need it. From business trips to weekend workouts, the AirFly SE adapts seamlessly to your lifestyle.

Important Notes

The AirFly SE is designed to transmit audio from devices with a 3.5mm output jack to Bluetooth headphones. It does not support two-way audio or microphone input, so it cannot be used for calls or voice chat. For best results, ensure your headphones are fully charged and within pairing range before connecting. The included USB-C charging cable allows for convenient power-ups from laptops, power banks, or wall adapters, though a wall charger is not included. To maintain performance and longevity, avoid exposing the device to moisture, extreme heat, or direct sunlight for prolonged periods.
