Book my cruise after or before I book my airfare.

How To

How to avoid becoming seasick during a cruise

Wearing a hat on a cruise will help you avoid getting seasick. Wide-brimmed caps prevent motion sickness and keep the head from moving too often.

Also, a hat helps keep water off your face, which reduces the humidity. This makes it easier to breathe for those who experience dizziness when inhaled moist air.

Drink plenty of fluids. Avoid alcohol or caffeine. These drinks dehydrate your body, making it more difficult for fluids to move around in your stomach. Consuming enough fluids can help lower the salt levels in your bloodstream. The body retains water due to salt, which can lead to nausea.

Eat something salty if your stomach is feeling nauseous. Salty foods can cause your stomach to produce more hydrochloric acids, which aids in breaking down food particles.

You can also take medications to alleviate seasickness if none of these methods work. Be aware that some medications may have side effects such as drowsiness, dry mouth, constipation, blurred vision, and headaches.
