Cabin pressure concern
I came across this website while trying to learn if other airline passengers experience ear pain from cabin pressure. Of course my interested is due to my own immediate symptoms. I fly frequently and when possible take Horizon (Alaska Airlines) to and from my destination; it's the only commercial airline that uses STS which is only a few miles from my home. Otherwise I need to leave from SFO, 100 miles away. I've had no problems on other airlines, but severe ear pain on Horizon when we land at STS. I've communicated with Alaska Airlines about this in the past and they state there are no other complaints. The problem doesn't arise every time and never occurs when I'm outbound and land at my destination, ususally LAX or LAS. But happens frequently on Horizon when I'm returning and the plane makes the steep landing into STS.
