Motion Sickness

Motion sickness can be experienced by some passengers. It is a conflict between the body’s sense of vision and it sense of equilibrium. Some people are more susceptible to this than others and increased turbulence can enhance the likelihood of experiencing motion sickness. Trying to focus on a fixed or non-moving object will assist in minimizing this. For example. during daylight hours, try to focus on the horizon, the sea or the ground. Over-the-counter medications can also assist you to minimize the effects of motion sickness so make sure you discuss this with your doctor or the specialist medical center. There is always a “sick bag” in the seat pocket in front of you if you need it. Press the call button for the flight attendant to take it away and replace it.
