Air travel is relatively smooth, however, occasional turbulence can lead
to an unexpectedly bumpy ride which may result in a bout of travel sickness.
Sit near to the wings if possible, as this is generally the most stable
part of most aircraft. As with many other forms of travel, maintaining good
ventilation is important in avoiding travel sickness, therefore, keep overhead
vents open where possible.
Try to distract yourself to avoid any
anxiety brought on by experiences of previous trips, as anxiety can often
lead to travel sickness. Listening to music or chatting to fellow passengers
can all help to distract attention. You may also find tilting your seat
back, resting your head on the headrest and closing your eyes helps.
