Great to hear it helped. Have a great cruise. Thanks so much for taking time to leave a comment. Much appreciated

It might seem counter-intuitive but I try to keep a little something on my stomach all the time. Six small meals a day worked very well. I love strong ginger as a rule so I bring crystallized ginger with me.

When I was sea sick, MSC cruiseline gave me a green apple, telling me to eat it slowly and weirdly... it worked!! I don't know the science behind it but they told us that green apples were the go-to remedy

Jack Mortimer - 6 years ago

Several crew members have recommended this to me over the years. The one time I was feeling a little unsettled I tried the green apple and felt much better in about an hour.

Tips For Travellers - 6 years ago

I have heard about but not tried that. Good to hear it worked

Know the signs. When it starts you get the sweats, and start to feel tired.

Hi Gary. I think I just stumbled onto one of your Edwardian predecessors. You might find The Scientific American Handbook of Travel (1910 edition) worth a look. https://archive.org/details/scientificameric01hopk

I only got sick once and that was back in the 1980's on a Epirotiki Cruise ...we were going from Brindisi Italy to Pireaus Athens....it was a horrible storm....I was so so so sick. Of course I survived but at the time it was bad.

Tips For Travellers - 6 years ago

I think it must be enviable that even those with the best sea legs will get struck at some point. Even the crew talk about it happening to them occasionally. It does not seem to put us off though.....!

Laurie Marschall - 6 years ago

I have never really been seasick so haven't needed these remedies, but these are the same that I recommend to people going on cruises. In big waves I may get a little queasy so I usually take a small bag of candied ginger - also helps with indigestion after a heavier dinner. One remedy I have seen but not tried are eating green apples, ie. Granny Smith (versus unripened). The best remedy for me has always been getting some fresh air and looking at the horizon. Works like a charm.

Tips For Travellers - 6 years ago

Thanks for your thoughts and tips. I have heard of the green apples one but never tried it or know anyone that has as the ginger option seems to be the best natural route to go. I agree on the fresh air point, I use that one too!

Sorry I posted before you talked about seasick pills.

Tips For Travellers - 6 years ago

No problem! It is great to get people like you leaving comments and tips and so thanks for doing that!

Tips For Travellers - 6 years ago

absolutely!!

Andrew Hawkins - 6 years ago

I didn’t get seasick whilst cruising however it took over 1 week to get rid of my ‘sea legs’ when back home. Any suggestions/remedies to alleviate it?

Eloquence - 6 years ago

There is no cure but time. It can take about a week.

Tips For Travellers - 6 years ago

I know that feeling. The one where the world seems to move and sway when you are standing or sitting still looking at something? I have not had it much but not found or heard of a solution. Hopefully someone will see this an let us know!!!

Ebba Lytle - 6 years ago

Many people in our family (myself included) have an opposite reaction to motion sickness remedies (it makes us sick) so we generally take ginger in some form. I like ginger ale or tea. I really appreciate the other suggestions... cabin location is an important consideration, for instance... and will be using them when we take our first cruise next year. Thanks!

Tips For Travellers - 6 years ago

Good point as not everyone tolerates the pills that well. My partner hates them and tends to use my other tips than the pills as say it makes them feel yuk and too tired. Ginger can be great I find too. Great to hear the other tips may help for your cruise. Let me know how you get on and what worked best for you all?

Felipe García - 6 years ago

Very nice video and useful information for people with seasickness
