Pax?
I think I need one of those side ones.
I had a heck of a time with sea sickness on our Eastern and I don't want to repeat that ever again. One of the reasons I wont do an Eastern ever again.

Do you have a suggestion as far as Category just so I know which circle to fill in?

Pax = number of passengers.

I have issues with motion sickness, so I begin taking 1 Bonine/day the morning we fly down to FL. It totally does the trick for me with no side effects whatsoever.

Will the Bonine make me sleepy?

It did not make me sleepy, and I had at least one beer or fruity drink at the pool during the day as well as a couple of drinks with dinner.

Good to know I think the stuff I got from first aid (we didn't bring anything along with us because I was fine on the 4 day we did before this) made me really sleepy which made it harder to have a good time. I knew Dramamine would knock me out, so really, thank you for this. Something to tame my tummy without making me sleepy is a vacation saver.

NickyKnack - have you thought of trying the SeaBands? We have those on hand in case my hubby has a problem so he doesn't have to worry about mixing something with his prescriptions. We've done the Eastern and Western and luckily never had a problem. And we cruised with a couple once that the wife has a terrible problem with motion sickness, she wore them all the time and never had any trouble. And since it's no medication they don't make you sleepy.

Oh my, advice from the Evil Queen, who I happen to love in both Disney and ABCs version.

Thank you for the advice - I'll look into this, any idea how they work?
And for giving me something to think about I suppose I should double check with my doc about bonine and my diabetes meds.

I got ours from Magellan's (http://www.magellans.com/bioband). Ours have a velro closings and some brands are all elastic. Ours have a small marble that you put in a certainly place on the inside of your wrist. The ones a friend has are all elastic and have a series of snap type buttons that go against the skin.

I'm pretty sure you could find at most drugstores or other travel supply websites.

Yes be sure to check with your doctor about drug interactions since you have diabetes.
