Motion sickness on Soaring?

[Rosanne]

I have some motion sickness issues. I couldn't do body wars very well back in the day. I can do okay on the mission space level green or even Star Tours but not so good on teacups. I've done them once in my life so I can say I have.

I'm not real good with I-Max theater things generally but I am actually pretty good on Soarin'. If I feel a slight yuck coming on I try to look to off screen.

I recommend bringing a air-sickness bag of sorts, JIC. I've never actually thrown up on a ride but I do carry some sort of bag in case. At least that way I don't also have the fear of being the cause of an unpleasant experience for others.

Soarin' does not bother me as much as I-MAX shows do. Although... at I-MAX shows I could completely close my eyes and pretend I'm just listening to audio.

Ever since the first time riding Soarin, the initial take off makes me queasy if I keep my eyes open

I was glad I took meclizine with me, or I'd have been barfing through darn near every ride. Even with the anti-motion sickness stuff, I thought I was going to die after EE and star tours. Didn't have enough guts to try mission or fasttrack. Anyone have any experience using the prescription patches? I'm thinking of asking my doc for some. I love to experience the rides, but it's not so enjoyable when I start turning green ten seconds in.
