EarPlanes Ear Plugs 1 Pair (Pack of 2)

This is a great product! Works well on airplane and drowns out engine noise. Comfortable enough to leave in during the airplane ride for a quiet and peaceful trip. Good for a variety of uses. Also works well for nonstop barking dogs.

I don’t get on an airplane without them! I had developed terrible ear pain when flying, particularly during landing due to the pressurization in airplane cabins. I put one in each ear when seated until captain turns off the seat belt sign and again prior to descent. Very important: Read the directions carefully on how to insert the Earplanes and when. These have eliminated the pain for me and they also allow me to hear more clearly when deplaning. I’ve recommended them to others with the same problem. It works. Great product!

While takeoff was okay, I have always experienced pretty bad ear pain during landing on flights. My ears would also remain blocked for days after landing. My ears have a tendency to produce excess wax that doesn't get removed, and I suspect this is where the problem comes from. It got so bad that I didn't fly for over 2 years to avoid it.Earplanes has changed everything. I put them in before taking off, leave them in for the flight, and take them off after landing. It works like magic. I hardly feel anything, and my ears remain unblocked with no pain. This has saved flying for me as I can now go on flights comfortable. Although they recommend a new pair after 2 flights, I have used them for much longer and have not had issues. Just keep them in the plastic case.Putting them on is easy and they don't feel uncomfortable at all.

Works great

I have terrible issues with just one ear when I fly. The usual remedies - yawn, swallow, hold your nose and blow, etc. - do not work for that ear. The "problem" ear will not only get stopped up during flights, but will develop extremely painful pressure (feels like eardrum will burst), and will remain stopped up for a couple of days after travel. It's so bothersome I have contemplated avoiding air travel and have seen an ENT (diagnosis is more narrow than usual eustachian tube on that side) . To say I am desperate for relief is an understatement. I ran across an advertisement for EarPlanes and decided to give them a try - why not, right? I tried them out on a recent vacation that involved a short flight to a connecting hub (<2 hour flight) and then a longer flight to Europe (9 hour flight). I wore the EarPlanes plugs from the time the airplane door closed until reaching cruise altitude, and then again for the last hour of each flight until the door was opened (and same on return flights). While I still had some residual after-flight blockage in the problem ear (cleared in 24 hours), I did NOT have the excruciating pressure that I have experienced in the past. So, while not 100% relief, this was a vast improvement and I will continue to use this product. As an FYI, because these plugs fit snugly in your ears, hearing PA announcements in the plane is difficult and using earbuds while using the plugs is impossible. I do not have over the ear headphones, so I cannot comment on how those work with the EarPlanes plugs. If you have issues with painful ears during air travel, I'd definitely recommend giving this product a try.

I have dreaded flying since I was a child. Something is wrong with my ears, because every single flight, my ears are painfully plugged. I have to clear them every 30 seconds or it’s incredibly painful. This leads to constant pressure, then jaw pain and headaches from the pressure and the “popping” my ears every 5 seconds. I would do anything I could to avoid flying! I heard about these on a mom’s group and oh my gosh, I’m so happy I did! These are literally life changing! I can’t believe how much of a difference they make. I don’t understand at all how they work, but I don’t care. I accidentally packed them in my suitcase on a recent flight and it was just awful flying without them! I now keep a pair in my purse at all times just in case.The one con is for some reason they make my ears itchy! But that’s a small price to pay for the relief they offer. If you have issues with flying, do not hesitate to try these!

I always read reviews before I make purchases. I read the most recent ones and the negative ones. Firstly, I hate flying to begin with, I just have an irrational fear so add in the ear pain and I just try to avoid air travel at any cost. I recently had to take 4 flights for a trip to and from North Carolina to northern Massachusetts, these absolutely saved my ears!!! I put a pair in before take off and took them out once we landed and each pair twice without any issues. My ears did not pop during any of the flight durations and I did not experience any pain or fullness during or after. They do feel weird when you put them in for the first time but after that, you adjust and it’s fine. The silicone is very soft and flexible, the adult size fit just fine for me. I will not go on another flight without these on hand!!

Incredibly, they work! I get “popped” ears often when flying, but these seem to totally solve the problem.

Ma fille a constamment terriblement mal aux oreilles lors des phases d’atterrissage en avion. C'est vraiment très douloureux et cela dure toute la durée de la descente voir un peu après...Elle a testé ces bouchons d'oreilles en les mettant bien 1 heure avant l'atterrissage annoncé... A part une légère douleur sur une oreille (plus la sensation d'une oreille très bouchée qu'une douleur), elle n'a eu aucun souci... vraiment, c'est un accessoire qui l'accompagnera en avion de façon systématique... cela vaut le coup !

These definitely worked with stopping the pain from the pressure, but they didn't help with the blocking and unblocking.

Recommended for people who face pressure issues and ear pain while travelling on planes.To be worn throughout the flight. Worked really well. Highly recommended

I used these ear plugs on a flight as I suffer with vertigo and was informed that ear plugs help stop an attack during flying. I found the ear plugs of good quality and very comfortable. They did block out a good amount of noise and I didn’t have any dizziness during the flight and on returning.

These ear plugs seem to work really well and are more comfortable than the foam ear plugs that I have used before. I haven't figured out which size is best for me, though I am leaning towards the smaller diameter ones (youth/adult small).
