This is the steadiest part of the craft, where you will feel the least amount of motion. An aisle seat will offer you easier walking and bathroom access, more leg room, and a speedier exit. Avoid ear pain. Eat lightly and wear loose-fitting clothes. Try to sleep during night flights, but limit yourself to only short naps on day flights.
Cruises Avoid shipboard accidents.
Get plenty of rest, be careful when taking any medication that may affect coordination, and watch out for slippery steps and gangways. Excessive alcohol consumption can increase risk of accidents, too. Take precautions against seasickness. Ask your physician or travel medicine specialist about remedies for seasickness, which often occurs during the first few days of an ocean cruise. Avoid too much sun or wind.
