Thanks try, but i could have them on for like 20 mins here and there throughout the flight to just give them so quiet maybe. Yeh, makes sense that i could have changed now, its a good thing. Oh rightt, yeh could be different with tinnitus/hyperacusis and stuff - more sensitive.

Hi, yeh sounds like a good plan. It is a tricky thing, and kinda a risk you have to take really... Yeh, i could get them checked before i go and make sure they are clear if it helps. Hey, i don't care how it looks if it help aha trying to take on board (literally) all the help i can get. Don't...

Thanks for the reply, I read it through :) I really would love to go, i feel its such an opportunity and i don't want to regret not going. I'm understanding now why wearing the plugs would be a bad idea on the way up and down. If i do go i'll be sure to bring earplanes, my usual ear plugs and...

Ohh, would cutting out all noise be a bad thing?? :/

Oh i see, yeh i wouldn't be listening to any music for sure, thats would started my tinnuts - music through headphones. Would ear muffs/ear defenders pretty much do the same thing??

Yeh if i do decide to go i will bring protection with me of course. But yeh wasn't sure about it being safe to wear it while taking off/landing because of the whole altitude and pressure thing...do you think it would be just safer to put your fingers over your ears or something until your up in...

Wow that's amazing, they told me they go for hikes round the mountains! I would be going for a week or 10 days, its undecided yet. I would be able to go in a car, but not driving myself aha still learning to drive.

Oh, i just use the foam ones, pack of like 15. They actually block out quite alot of noise for how cheap they are. Yeh, as long as they fit you and are comfortable and protect you then that's all that matters :) What do the noise cancelling ones do, do they just pretty much block out every sound...

Just clicked the link, they're quite big actually,but tbh i couldn't care less what people think, my ears need protection aha. Yeh, i'll have to see what i can do with seating if i do decide to go. Didn't really know you had the choice of seats, i'm such a novice aha. Oh i mean noise cancelling...

thanks for replying :) wow so you went ahead with it? i hope you managed to have a good time! thats what i'm thinking, somewhere new and such a oppitunity and i don't want it to just pass by me. But i am concerned with my ears, i don't want to have to suffer any worse or more. where would i get...

Thanks, its nice to know that others have been brave enough to fly. Still not sure whether to or not, going to book an appointment with my audiologist and speak to him too. I know when it comes to tinnitus, the noise probably won't make it any worse as long as i keep ear protection with me. The...

Thanks for the reply. Yes, i know at cruising point, its a steady sound and i'm told its not all that loud. Infact my dad was saying the airport itself is probably more louder than the plane. what are noise cancelling ear plugs? never actually heard of those before? And ear muffs as in ear...

Hey guys, needing a little help here, not sure what to do. I have hyperacusis and tinnitus (for just over a year now). Its a terrible thing but i am adapting to it. My ears are still very sensitive, i still wear earplugs at work, and I don't go to cinemas/concerts; trying to be careful with my...

Hi Juan, thanks for the reply. Yes! I completely understand the shower being like a waterfall part. Bearable over time, so your ears adjust and get used to these sounds. I think the problem with me right now, is alot of this hyperacusis stuff is getting to me physiologically too, if that makes...

Hey there, Just wondering if anyone could share with me any links for the best ear plugs, for good noise reduction and ones with filters??? I found this one, https://uk.earpeace.com/collections/high-fidelity-hearing-protection/products/ear-plugs which looks like my best option so far. Thanks...
