Ear protection like customised earplugs will go a long way towards protecting the delicate parts of the ear that allow us to hear, especially if you’re on a long flight and have to endure the noise for many hours, including at night, when you want to sleep. If you’re looking for something to block out noise, see these recommended ear defenders for children or these ear plugs for noise reduction instead.EarPlanes work by slowing down the rate at which pressure changes in the ear canal, allowing the Eustachian tube to more effectively equalize pressure in the middle ear. Ears popping is caused by changes in cabin pressure, which your Eustachian tube struggles to adapt to. EarPlanes Ear Plugs are specially designed for kids and small ears, providing relief from air pressure discomfort during flights with their exclusive CeramX filter.

But, from my experience, plus the numerous positive online reviews, EarPlanes is one brand that I can recommend to anyone. Boots Flight Earplugs are designed to help relieve the discomfort associated with air pressure changes during flights. The whole point is that, locking out that sound and regulating the air pressure has more benefits than you thought. Clean earplugs with mildly damp cloth; do not get water or debris in the cylindrical cavity of the plug as this may cause the liner to fail.However, they’re unlikely to be as effective at preventing your ears from popping as they don’t have an air pressure filter. This means they’re a good choice if you want something to help block out noise when you want to get some sleep. These earplugs are reusable for up to 5 flights, making them a cost-effective solution for frequent travelers. With EarPlanes EP2 Ultra-Reusable Earplugs, you can enjoy your flight without worrying about ear discomfort and noise.

Therefore, before you book a ticket for your next trip, make sure that you have a pair of these essential products. A study by aeroplane manufacturer Airbus found that it’s noisier at the back of the plane than the front because you’re getting the sound blast from the jet engines or propellers. Our hearing is often the last thing we think about regarding our health, as all too often we take it for granted — until we run into trouble and then wonder why we didn’t take preventative steps earlier. These ear plugs are essentially the same as the Earplanes adult ear plugs reviewed above, only smaller to fit children’s ears better. Like Earplanes, they don’t block out noise much so you’ll still be able to have a conversation and hear announcements.

Try to avoid flying if you have a cold or upper respiratory infection as it can make it more difficult for your Eustachian tube to operate.
