Swimmer ear: if you are on drops fine. If not get some from your primary doctor who will have someone on call that can call this in for you. Swimmer's ear is usually not too affected by changes in pressure. You should be fine to fly. The ear needs to get cleaned out by an ENT doctor who has the equipment to do so readily. Good luck and feel better!
