Aldi in Spain will be cheap like here, the food will be different (but in my experience better quality).

As for your ears, the only suggestions I have are swallowing a lot or eating chewy sweets.

Your post is really sweet, I hope you have a lovely time x

Sounds like you're self catering. All restaurants in Spain are obliged to offer a reasonably priced meal or Plat del Dia which includes water, wine, bread, a main and a pud usually through the daytime rather than evening. That might break up the self-catering and give you a taste of Spain! Have a lovely trip.

I'm going all inclusive. I was just asking in general as we will probably still get a few bits.

You can get flight earplugs, I don't fly without them otherwise the pain brings me to tears so they definitely work.
