Travel Ear Protection

Protecting your ears is important when traveling, whether flying, motorcycling or traveling otherwise. Earjobs has wax, foam, silicone and more ear plugs to protect against the pressure change associated with take off and landing when flying, and ear plugs for motorcycling to protect against wind noise and any traffic noises on the road!

Which ear protection for travel is right for you?

Aeroplane Ear Explainer

During take-off and landing, rapid changes in cabin pressure can cause a condition known as aeroplane ear — where the pressure inside your ear doesn’t equalise quickly enough with the pressure outside. This leads to that familiar popping sensation, muffled hearing, or even sharp pain, especially if you're congested or prone to ear issues.
Flying ear plugs are designed with pressure-regulating filters that slow down how quickly air enters and exits the ear canal. This gives your ears more time to adjust naturally and helps prevent the discomfort of aeroplane ear. They’re an easy, reusable solution for more comfortable and stress-free air travel — especially during take-off and descent.
What’s the difference between regular ear plugs and flying ear plugs?

Unlike regular ear plugs, which are designed to block noise, flying ear plugs are built to regulate air pressure in your ear canal. They usually feature ceramic or membrane-based filters that allow air to pass through slowly, helping your ears equalise at a more comfortable pace.
Some models also offer mild noise reduction, which is great for blocking out engine hum or cabin chatter — but their primary purpose is pressure control. If you're looking for full noise isolation during your flight, you can pair flying plugs with over-ear headphones or noise-cancelling muffs for extra comfort.
Why motorcyclists need ear plugs.

Riding a motorcycle exposes your ears to constant wind noise, which can easily exceed 100 dB at highway speeds — more than enough to cause permanent hearing damage over time. Even with a full-face helmet, prolonged exposure to wind and engine noise can lead to ringing ears, fatigue, and long-term hearing loss.
Motorcycle-specific ear plugs are designed to reduce harmful noise while still allowing you to hear important sounds like traffic, sirens, and intercom systems. Whether you're commuting or touring, protecting your ears helps you stay focused, alert, and safe on the road.

Travel ear plugs and flying ear protection

Travelling can be one of life’s greatest pleasures, but the noise and pressure changes that come with planes, trains, and hotels can quickly become overwhelming—especially for sensitive ears. At Earjobs, we offer a wide range of travel ear plugs designed to help you relax and protect your hearing wherever your journey takes you.

From foam and wax options to high-tech silicone and pressure-regulating ear plugs, our travel range is made for comfort, versatility, and peace of mind. Whether you’re trying to catch some sleep on a long flight, reduce cabin pressure discomfort, or block out hotel hallway noise, we’ve got a solution to suit every traveller.

Why do I need ear protection when I travel?

Looking after your ears is important when you travel, from the plane to the hotel and beyond. While travelling opens up lots of new and exciting experiences, it can also lead to nasty surprises. We offer a wide array of travel ear plugs, from wax ear plugs and foam ear plugs through to high-quality flying and silicone ear plugs.

Different materials offer their own distinct advantages, so it's important to do your homework and find a solution that's perfect for you. For example, we provide pressure release ear plugs to protect your ears from abrupt changes in air pressure when flying. We also stock travel ear plugs to minimise noise pollution when you're staying in hotels, and high-quality sleep masks so you can rest your eyes in any environment.
