I have carried candied ginger root with me for motion sickness as long as I have been an adult. It is a safe and for me effective way to deal with the problem. As a last resort (if I do not have ginger root) Ginger Ale will help, but is nowhere near as effective.

:Ginger root is one of, if not the best way to cure motion sickness, temporally of course. Middle Eastern sailors have used ginger roots for motion sickness for centuries. Although, it can sometimes be hard to find ginger roots in stores, ginger ale is next best thing. While some say it isn't as strong as the roots, it is still very effective.

Will you get motion sickness?

Sorry, I phrased the question incorrectly. I meant to ask: "Will I get motion sickness?" Basically, I've flown for almost every year of my 13 year long life. I flew last year, and I didn't experience motion sickness - in fact I've never experienced motion sickness. I'm not one who is prone to motion sickness either, as I am not aged between 3 to 12 and do not experience migraine headaches etc. The flight I am boarding this year will only be 3 hours long, and it does not pass over particularly turbulent zones. I'll be consuming a ginger capsule too, as apparently that helps to prevent it. I'm not sure if I'm acting ridiculously, but are my chances practically zero - considering all of the facts above? :) Please answer, with your experiences too.
