How to prevent ears getting plugged on airplanes if chewing gum and eating hard candy doesn't work?
in
I'm going to Cancun in the summer and I have to take an air plane. What I usually do to prevent ears getting plugged is I'd wear my earphones and listen to music the whole flight. But I'm looking for another way because that can sometimes be very annoying. I've tired chewing gum, hard candy, swallowing, plugging my nose and breath through a closed mouth and repeatedly swallow. But it doesn't work.
Answer:
i used "earplanes" the last time i flew which was in august and they worked great!
my ears don't get painful when flying they just get plugged so i can't hear well for a while and let me tell you i didn't have that problem when using the earplanes.
you can get them for like $5-$6 from walmart/target/cvs....
