Here's my disclaimer: I get motion sick on almost everything, including in swimming pools and on the parking lot tram. I take one Bonine every day when we go to WDW. I also don't enjoy rides with big falls. My "never have done, never will do" list included ToT, RnRC, Space Mountain, Mission Space, Star Tours, Primeval Whirl, Everest, Teacups, AstroOrbiter. I have done Splash Mountain about 6 times but choose not to do it anymore. Barnstormer made me sicker than any other ride I've ever been on- I did it once and will NEVER do it again!
Here are my experiences on the things I DO ride (remember that I take Bonine each day):
BTMRR- this is my favorite ride in all of WDW! I can ride it once, but find I feel queasy by the end if we ride twice in a row. I am OK riding it several times if there are several hours between rides.
Dumbo and Aladdin's Carpets- Not too bad, sometimes it makes me a little queasy but it goes away quickly.
Jungle Cruise- mixed bag. I think it's the smell that bothers me more than the motion.
Soarin' and Philharmagic- sometimes I close my eyes during the "swishy" parts, especially when Aladdin and Jasmine are soaring through the streets.
7DMT- I thought I was going to be ok, until we stopped outside the cottage at the end of the ride. The motion sickness overwhelmed me and it was all I could do to hold it together until I got off the ride. I sat for about 30 minutes, sipping soda (not diet!), until I felt well enough to get up and walk around.
TestTrak- sometimes the fast, outdoor part makes me queasy, but it passes quickly.
No problem with the Safari or Kali River Rapids! No experience with FEA or anything in Pandora as they are all new and I haven't ridden them yet!
hats off to you, you are truly a trooper!
