How is flying with tinnitus?

Many people actually find flying to be one of the times when they are completely free of their tinnitus because of the background noise of the engines.


Is it okay to go on a plane with tinnitus?

Those with permanent tinnitus are not likely to experience any changes in their tinnitus when flying. For those that do, it should only be temporary. We would recommend that you seek the advice of a medical or hearing professional if you are experiencing prolonged effects after a flight.
