Why it happens: During takeoff and landing, rapid changes in cabin pressure create a difference between the pressure in your middle ear and the outside environment. Normally, the Eustachian tube equalizes this by opening briefly. If it’s blocked (e.g., by congestion, allergies, or a cold), the pressure imbalance persists, causing a “popped” or “blocked” sensation, muffled hearing, or even pain.
