Default Just Plane Shades

Hello everyone,

Does anybody use Just Plane Shades? [Just Plane shades] | Stop-Over Store

I tired searching APC and Google, and even YouTube, but I can't find very much (at all) on these shades. Thoughts on that brand or on any window shades for flying are appreciated!

I'll give an update on these. I bought the non aircraft specific version. It comes as a package of two window clings, each about 12 inches by a little over 12 inches. I like them, as they really cut down on the intensity of the sun decently. The manufacturer claims UV protection. I hope that is true. None the less, I like them. The smell is strong at first, like that of a new beach ball.

Go to Toys R Us. In the baby section you'll find the cling type shades. 2 for about $5.

I bought the 737 one about two years ago. I use it on just about every flight. Works great except over time it doesn't stick as well to the window. I wish they made one for the back window as well, I'd buy it right away!

+1. I use something like this (but not the exact one).

It really makes life better even in the middle altitudes. You can also rip it down quickly if traffic called at 10 oclock.
