Questions and Answers
- 1. Are there any ear plugs that block all noise?

- 2. Which ear plugs are best, silicone or foam?
Foam earplugs are the most popular today, and on average they are more effective for blocking noises. However, they need to be inserted deep into the ear canal to be effective and this may not sit well for everyone. silicone ear plugs, on the other hand, work differently.

- 4. How do ear plugs protect your ears in flight?
