The inside of an aircraft during flight? About 80 decibels, or about four times as loud as the typical office.
Is the inside of a plane loud?
During a plane journey, the noise can vary a lot. When noise levels inside the cabin reach 105 decibels, take-off and landing are the loudest. According to Pamela Mason of the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA), noise at cruising altitudes can be as low as 85 decibels.
How loud is the average plane?
The sounds associated with jet planes measure between 120 and 140 decibels. Any sound above 85 decibels has the potential to cause hearing damage, especially with frequent or prolonged exposure. Wearing ear protection and limiting exposure to loud sounds is the best way to protect against noise-induced hearing loss.
