Nauseous while flying
Airsick describes the nausea and discomfort some people experience during air travel, similar to carsick or seasick.
The motion of the aircraft disturbs the inner ear's sense of balance: She felt airsick during the turbulence.
Airlines provide airsick bags in seat pockets for this reason.
