5.0 out of 5 stars Earplanes Saved My Ears, September 27, 2006

I used to hate flying - it always felt like someone was driving an icepick through my ear. I have one ear that won't pop on its own no matter which trick I try (and I've tried them all.) This product is great - no more icepicks and I can fly pain free. You can wear them and still hear so not an earplug but does help block out some noise which is an added benefit. Definitely a must have item!

4.0 out of 5 stars Pain-free flying, December 8, 2007

By 

PenName (NJ United States) - See all my reviews

For the last several years, I've been in severe pain for the last 30 minutes of every flight I've taken as the pressure in the airplane's cabin changes. I had to take an overseas business trip and dreaded the pain and temporary hearing loss I usually encounter after a flight. Some research on the Internet led me to earplanes and I just used them for my trip to France--what a wonderful product! I felt the pressure changes, but the occasional yawn fixed it! It's been ages since a yawn fixed pressure changes for me! I was so, so happy I can't even begin to tell you.

These soft earplugs have a valve at the end that relieve the pressure and still allow you to hear. The directions tell you to basically screw them into the ear canal before take off or landing (whenever you generally get the most discomfort). They are good for one round-trip flight (2 uses) and the manufacturer recommends no more than that for the best performance. They come in a handy little plastic case, too.

For me this is the only way I can fly without really bad earpain. These plugs are the best if you can not relieve pressure in your ears by chewing or swallowing.
Highly recommended!
