It's tricky for me though because I need to do it pro-actively. If I wait too long, then I get the headache and it is hard to get it to go away. But if I do it too often, then I find it actually gives me a headache. I usually do a combination of that, yawning and swallowing to keep everything in check. And yes, I am definitely going to use nasal spray for the Cayman-Miami and Miami-Costa Rica flights. Then I'm going to see an ENT doctor and see if there's anything that can be done to help me going forward. I'm totally paranoid when I'm flying and it has nothing to do with potential crashes...

I tend to get sinus problems too. Have you tried holding your nose while blowing (don't do this on takeoff)? It usually does the trick for me. Yawning also helps some times. If you have a cold, you should definitely get hold of some nasal spray. I know that some companies make earplugs for equilazing the pressure in your ears on takeoff/landing. I have no idea whether they work or not.. Sounds awfull.
