How to keep earbuds from falling out?

I got these earpuds with my iPhone 5s But I never really used them because they were a bit uncomfortable and kept falling out my ears. But I'm going on vacation soon and I don't want to lug around my headphones And i was thinking of using my earbuds instead (because of their portability) I'll be sitting in an airplane for 12 hours And planning to watch movies, so what can I do to keep my earbuds in my ears without constantly holding them in.

I know this is years later...but was having the same problem and googled my way to this thread. I forgot my headphones at work and needed something temporary and JUST after reading some of these snarky comments the quick-fix came to me. JUST REVERSE AND FLIP THEM. So right goes in left upside down (left in right upside down) and then pull the cord over your ear. Voila! Good for walking around at least. Can't vouch for running.
