Fact 1

Babies and infants suffer from earache, particularly that caused by ear congestion on aeroplanes. This is because their ear drums take a while to develop and so find it hard to deal with the changes in ear pressure - hence why you hear crying babies on flights. Older children can suck on a sweet or pinch their nose to blow into their nostrils to alleviate pressure and a baby can be encouraged to drink water.
