I recently took a long flight and brought my Quest device, set to travel mode. It worked great! Pretty much the same experience as this article describes.

One protip, I bought a 512G flash drive and loaded it with content. Then I could pop the drive in and play movies off it. I did not want to deal with needing connectivity for DRM or other server checks.

Highly recommend that people try this out, the next time you travel. It’s a killer use case for VR.

Sounds great, what did you use for audio?

Would guess regular wired headphones/earplugs, as bluetooth has a lag which is pretty bad for gaming.

I exclusively use bluetooth headphones when gaming. The lag is actually not that bad unless you're playing something like a rhythm game.
