Question

Does anyone have any tips to keep your ears from hurting on an airplane flight?

Answer 1

This happens to me every time I fly. it is a build up of pressure in your ears. All you have to do is hold your nose then try and blow it hard. I promise this works, you may need to do it as you descend too.

Answer 2

Drink something or just plain swallow. Chewing gum really helps. Blowing your nose and taking a sinus pill before your flight.

Check out www.magellons.com, they sell travel products that helps with this problem.

Answer 3

If they are really hurting, I would talk to a doctor. If they get blocked while taking off, reaching certain altitudes or landing, try chewing on something as the jaw will 'pop' the eardrums back to normal.

like I said before if they are actually hurting, and not just blocked, it could be very serious.

Answer 4

Couple ways:

-chew gum

-listen to music

-hum

-yawn

-talk (to move the jaw)

All of these work for me!

Enjoy and have fun!
