Flying With Blocked - Ears

The main culprit behind blocked ears during flight is the change in air pressure. As an airplane ascends or descends, the air pressure outside the ear changes, causing the eardrum to bulge inward or outward. If the Eustachian tube is blocked, the air pressure in the middle ear cannot equalize with the outside pressure, leading to discomfort, pain, or even hearing loss.
