For those who wear N95s on planes, I can confirm that 3M Aura 9205+ works great with Vision Pro※ and doesn't hinder using it at all, nor reduce comfort, at least for my head and face shape.

※ - Tested during my 30 min demo (more like 45 mins) at the Apple Store.

Slightly OT but I much prefer the 9211+: the vent[*] makes a difference in comfort when worn over long periods. Or the 9105 / 9105S which sticks out further away from the face, and its elastic design makes it a bit quicker to don / doff at checkpoints.

[*] Yes I'm prioritizing my comfort over safety for others, but that's the American Way (tm), isn't it.

There are masks with full N95 filtration that have a fan built in to pull the air through the filter. Makes it much more comfortable to wear for long periods.

(I switch to a mask with no metal in it for airport metal detectors, but I can switch back again immediately afterwards.)

Any recommendations for such masks?

The Philips "Fresh Air" or "Fresh Breeze" mask (different names in different regions).
