Headphone adaptor for Aer Lingus Man-MCO?

It’s been so long since I’ve flown I’ve forgotten everything.
Will we need an adaptor to use our own headphones?
I think the plane is Airbus A330-200, has 2 seat either side configuration.

We flew with them yesterday and it’s a 2 pronged socket for headphones so we had to use theirs (which are free)

Hi
Just posted this wouldn’t hesitate to use them again

Flew with AL yesterday for the first time Man to Mco
Normally go with Virgin but not paying double for the privilege!

Would definitely try to make sure you do VeriFLY as the check in queues were huge and only 2 desks open. We could just use a stand to weigh our cases get our luggage tags and straight to an empty bag drop kiosk!

We were 20 minutes late taking off but this was due to an air bridge fault!

Apart from no free alcoholic drinks no real difference at all between the 2!
I don’t drink as I am the driver at the other end lol
Drinks service then dinner which was Ok.
Lots of films games tv etc available the WiFi worked ok (we needed to check football scores lol)
Ice cream chocolate popcorn etc throughout then afternoon tea shortly before landing.

Only differences for me;

Positive AL layout 2-4-2 v Virgin if I remember was 3-4-3

Negative (not for me but maybe some) AL pay for alcohol v Virgin it’s free

Thank you.
Our first time with AL too, due again to the huge difference in fares with VA.

I’ve flown with AL a number of times and they are great. I got a 2 pronged adapter from Amazon, works a treat
