Traveling with Vision Pro

If you’re packing up your Vision Pro to take to another location, Apple recommends not only following the usual precautions of using the cover to protect the glass and keeping it in a padded case but also removing the ZEISS Optical Inserts and packing them separately, as they might detach from the headset in transit and become damaged.

However, the Vision Pro also includes a special Travel Mode for using the headset on an airplane while in flight. This adjusts the sensors and cameras on the Vision Pro to account for “the unique motion and environment of commercial air travel.”

Apple says you should never use this mode if you’re not on an airplane, and there will be a few things you can’t do in Travel Mode, including using your Persona virtual avatar and setting up the Vision Pro.

While in flight, you also shouldn’t walk around the plane wearing the Vision Pro — always remove it before you stand up and take it off during turbulence, takeoff, and landing. Apple also says you should avoid looking out the airplane’s windows, as this can confuse the Vision Pro.
