Can I get on the plane with a hearing aid

The emergence of aircraft is convenient for many people to travel. There are many hearing-impaired patients around the world, and there are many people wearing hearing aids, so can they wear hearing aids on the plane? Will it have any impact?

In fact, if the aircraft is in a stable driving process, there is no data to show what bad problems will occur if the hearing aid is worn, and the hearing aid can also be worn on the aircraft.

During the security check, our hearing impaired patients should inform the security check personnel that they have hearing problems. If the hearing loss is too severe and communication is inconvenient, pen and paper can be prepared in advance, and words can be used for communication when necessary.

According to the international security management, it is unnecessary for deaf patients to remove the hearing aid during the security check. If the security inspector still insists on taking it down, he can ask for communication with their responsible person to avoid loss or damage due to too many people and crowding after taking it down.

Secondly, when taking a plane, when the plane goes up or down, our hearing loss patients can’t wear hearing aids to avoid the pressure changes inside and outside the eardrum caused by the blockage of the external auditory canal. Even those who don’t wear hearing aids need to chew and open their mouth to maintain the pressure inside and outside the middle ear, especially if you have children Children within six months are not recommended to fly, because their eustachian tube is not fully developed, it is more likely to cause middle ear negative pressure.

In addition to the above points, when we are flying, we are also prone to suffer from a disease, aero otitis media. This otitis media can be found in adults and children, and especially in patients with a cold or inflammation of the eustachian tube, they are more likely to have this problem.

Then there is another point. Many people don’t know or know that X-ray opportunities will not have a bad impact on hearing aids. It is stated here that X-ray machines will not have an impact on hearing aids and other hearing equipment.
