Airplane gum?

Question

In your opinion, what is the best brand of chewing gum to bring on a plane to prevent your ears from popping? I'm going on a plane ride that is about 7 hours. I was thinking about brands like Extra, but I'd love other opinions! Thanks so much :]

Answer 1

ooh for airplanes i love bubble gum like the big chunks in bubble yum or bubblicious

Answer 2

Orbit

Answer 3

extra is pretty good and so it orbit and bubbalicious

Answer 4

I personally like Extra because I hate chewing gum after it looses its flavor and extra keeps its flavor for a long time.

Any type of gum would be good. Gum chewing does not work for everyone though. Here are some other ways to help with the ear pressure:

*Drink something

*Suck on a hard candy or mints

*Yawn

*Pinch the nostrils shut, take a deep breath in through the mouth, then force the air into the back of the nose as if trying to blow your nose

*Place hot damp towels (usually like the ones distributed to first and business class before take-off and landing to freshen up with - just ask a flight attendant for them) or paper towels that have been soaked in hot water and wrung out at the bottom of two paper or styrofoam cups, then hold the cups over the ears.

*Another trick that used mainly on babies and small children, but can be used on anyone, is to gently but with some pressure, rub your neck repeatedly from the chin to the base of the neck. This will cause a swallowing motion that will relieve pressure build-up in the ears.
