Don't take another flight with your kids without Children's EarPlanes! Children's ear pain from air pressure during air travel can make a parent feel so helpless, a child so miserable, and a flight so long. Children's EarPlanes help you to help your child find relief. And the other passengers will appreciate it too!

At Safe Kids Shop, we love to offer natural, drug-free alternatives like Children's EarPlanes. Children's EarPlanes inventive ear plugs relieve children's ear discomfort during air travel by minimizing the clogging and popping by regulating air pressure naturally. EarPlanes have an exclusive CeramX filter and are a patented pressure-regulating earplug developed in conjunction with the House Ear Institute in Los Angeles.  EarPlanes are made of soft hypoallergenic silicone and tested and recommended by doctors and US Navy aviators at the Miramar Navel Air Station in San Diego.

EarPlanes are intended for people with sensitive ears (like kids) or people who must fly even though suffering with a cold, allergy or sinus condition. Always consult your family physician in the event of severe sinus congestion (completely blocked Eustachian tubes) as even EarPlanes may not be enough for safe travel.

How Do EarPlanes Work?

EarPlanes consist of two elements: a hypoallergenic silicone ear plug and a ceramic pressure regulator. The silicone earplug in EarPlanes has four circumferential rings which provide an airtight seal between the product and ear canal. The ceramic element is a controlled porosity filter, one end of which is exposed to the external cabin pressure, with the opposite end exposed to the sealed chamber formed when the ear plug is inserted in the ear. Thus, as the cabin air pressure changes, a pressure differential is created across the ceramic filter, thereby causing air to flow through the filter. The filter acts as an impedance to the flow of air into and out of the ear canal.

Discomfort is caused by blockage and/or swelling of a passengers Eustachian tube(s). The air pressure changes induced by the aircraft's descent are too rapid for the blocked Eustachian tubes to adjust properly. However, EarPlanes, provide an equal but opposite impedance on the exterior of the middle ear, allowing relief. Discomfort is reduced because the air pressure difference on the exterior and interior of the middle ear is lessened allowing the Eustachian tubes to function more normally.
