Save your ear

Posted by Staff in Flying, Health, Tip of the Week

Airplane Ear is the horrible pressure (and pain) that some people feel in their ears when they fly.  If you are like me, Airplane Ear can sometimes continue when you get off the plane and ruin a trip.

A tip a doctor once told me to avoid Airplane Ear is to NOT sleep when the plane starts to descend. According to the Mayo Clinic, this allows you to make sure you’re swallowing enough to keep your ears clear.
