With the holiday season now just around the corner, many will no doubt be looking to get their flights abroad booked.
While jetting off is an exciting prospect for some, it can be a bit more of a means to an end for others. As well as those who simply do not enjoy flying, there are some people who end up feeling a little unwell while in the air.
And according to Anton Radchenko, founder of AirAdvisor, a lot of the time that nausea comes from simple dehydration.
"The limit of your water intake on the plane, in combination with the air pressure, can contribute to dehydration symptoms," says Anton.
The expert says that choosing ginger ale helps alleviate nausea - even when not on a plane - and so could be an ideal in-flight drink.
Because of the cabin pressure, it is less sweet on the plane, and the ginger flavour stays strong, making it the perfect choice to relieve symptoms of nausea.
"Flying can reduce our senses due to cabin pressure, dry air, and even the plane engine noise. Decreased senses can cause food and drinks to be dull or bland," says Radchenko.
And of course, you cannot go wrong with a bottle of water, which you should always keep handy while flying.
However if you're looking for something with a bit more flavour to it, Anton revealed a drink which reportedly tastes better in the sky.
According to the expert, a Bloody Mary tastes better while flying. The combination of the dry air and the aeroplane pressure brings out the flavours of the tomato juice, making it taste sweet despite the salt and olive in the drink.
But if you want to steer clear of the alcohol, plain juice such as tomato, orange, or apple juice can satisfy a sweet tooth while on a plane.
And seltzer water and juice, such as cranberry or apple, can hydrate, help with nausea, and provide vitamin C.
