Ok then, sorry to put my 0.02$ as an SLF between, but what can one do if such situation happens on the flight? Is there some remedy that can be applied by a PAX when no masks are available? Breath deeply, stop breathing at all, etc?
I understand that the masks alone don't help for the pain in the ears, but in general, what could be done? And just out of my interest, why isn't there a manual release button for the masks to drop out?
Cheers
