I am a flight attendant and I have a flight tomorrow. I wanted to know if it is possible for me to make a flight even if I have a blocked ear?

Hello Ma'am,
This could indeed cause you pain.
A good thing to do if your ear is still plugged this morning is to stop by the drugstore and get some Dristan or Otrivin™ spray, and do the valsalva technique about 45 minutes after using it. It usually helps to rebalance the pressures in the ears and could therefore decrease the risk of pain.
