Reply to comment by JamieDrone in TIFU by opening my waterbottle at work by MoonTearChild

So is a solution to prevent this to keep opening and closing the bottle during ascent? Get the pressure inside decreasing in steps.

I’ve had this happen once and have avoided it since by slightly opening the bottle (where some pressure gets released) and leave it like that through takeoff and then do it again for landing.

Or just open it before takeoff and close it at altitude
