Airplane Ears Make Flying Painful. Millions of people dread flying. Itâs not really the long security lines, the puny snacks or the lack of leg room. Itâs not even the frequent delays or the lost luggage. For a lot of fliers the problem is ear pain. Airplane ears are caused when the pressure inside the middle ear doesnât equalize to the pressure in the cabin.
The ear drum is therefore unable to move when a sound wave hits it and so the sound is muffled when it is heard. The crackling is due to the mucus moving within the middle ear. It is the blockage of the Eustachian tube that causes pain in the ears when flying as the changes in air pressure make it difficult for the pressure across the ear drum to equalise. This causes the ear drum to be stretched, which is painful.
