Many people suffer from closed ears or even earaches during air travel and mountain rides. Flite Mate can prevent this, because the earplug absorbs the sudden pressure differences, giving your ears time to adjust. A unique feature of FliteMate is that it is preformed to the ear canal. This makes the wearing comfort unparalleled. The unique shape of the FliteMate even makes it possible to wear headphones, so you can listen to your favorite music and / or follow the movie on the plane, while wearing the FliteMate hardly affects speech intelligibility.
