After trying a bunch of different brands over the years, I think AirPods Pro 2nd Gen are the best option for most people ($189 on Amazon).
In my opinion, they are slightly better at noise cancellation than my Bose QC 35 II (I haven’t tried 700/QC45/XM5s).
I find AirPods a bit easier to sleep with them on than other over-ear headphones.
The downside is they won’t last a whole long haul flight.
