Accepted answer
  1. Active noise cancellation headphones, which contain a microphone and chip that listens to the noises around you and acoustically cancels it out. I use Bose QC15, which are good,but you still hear high frequencies (voices)
  2. Privacy Filters for your screen, which block angled light making the screen appear black to anyone looking at it from an angle other than straight on, so the person next to you doesn't see anything.

N.B. 1st class isn't really better, but often even more crowded on some routes

It is a common thing that when sitting free, people will look around and observe things. Don't worry, they are not spying on you.

To solve this probelm, I recommend you to Occupy a window seat and turn the laptop a littile towards the window side. So, they can't see what you are doing.

To cancel noise, using a earphone with heavy sound will cause damage to your ear. So don't go for it.

To solve this problem, you should practice to avoid noise from surrounding. Personally I suggest you to practice YOGA to gain concentration.
