the congestion, from your cold, has plugged up your Eustachian tubes, (they run from your ear to your sinus cavity), and this causes pressure build-up that results in the popping that you are hearing.

Its probably just your ears still trying to equalize after the flight you were on. In some cases, it could be a problem with your sinuses draining in your ear. If i were your shoes, I would see a doctor just to make sure its nothing serious

When you have a cold and sneeze a lot your ears will pop on and off. It'll go away after a few days when you feel better...

This happens to me after a cold. If you are in high altitude or went on a plain ride recently that might be the problem.

Sounds like your sinus are a little blocked still. Smell some vapour to help clear your sinuses

The popcorn your stuffed in there when you were cold has now warmed up.

Has something to do with gravity, your Eustachian tube, and the equilibrium contributing to the sea levels.

Changes in Sinus pressure or elevation can make your ears pop.
It's probably just sinus pressure. You will live!!

Mine pop too - every time I swallow a drink or food!!!!
I think it's because I've had so many tonsilitis infections. It's very annoying.
