Playdough, coloring, trucks, books, bubbles, and just running around with him.
Maybe walk around with him handing out earplugs to everyone in your section . Everyone will fall in love with him, and then they won't mind his activeness as much. Plus, they'll have earplugs to tune him out.

He's a bit older now you might want to try videos again.

Go to the dollar store and pick up a bunch of little toys and stickers and things like that

If he’s getting a seat bring his carseat so he’ll be more anchored. His blankie, pacy, stuffed teddy- whatever will get him more shut eye.
Give him Tylenol or Motrin 1/2 hour before takeoff if he’s prone to ear infections.
Lots of snacks, small cheap games that you don’t care of you’ll lose the pieces.
Few changes of clothing, undershirt, diapers, wipes.

Good luck!

Melissa and Doug water wows are a lifesaver for us on flights! Stickers and crayons that you don’t care to lose. We have child size headphones. They’re more comfortable for them than earbuds. Do you have a tablet? Try downloading easy games and nursery rhyme videos. He’s a little older now and may be more willing to watch videos.
In general, anything new is usually exciting. Try getting dollar store toys that don’t matter if they get lost. Bring treats for bribery. Flights are survival mode so anything that keeps them quiet goes.
