Hi Jana. the next time you fly get a product called 'ear planes'. they kind of look like ear plugs but are vented to equalize the pressure in your ears. I have the same problem with pain in my ears, especially when the plane is landing. I was concerned if there is any problem bringing medication on the plane and if only a certain amount is allowed and if you need a written prescription from your doctor. I don't know if this is required but a few people I know that travel alot have told me they need documentation due to strickter rules of what you can bring on the plane. thanks. Lori
