Travel preparation

Sea-motion comfort planner

Review practical factors that can affect how much ship movement you notice. This questionnaire does not diagnose motion sickness, predict whether you will become ill or recommend medication.

What this planner can and cannot tell you

Ship motion depends on vessel size and design, speed, heading, waves and weather. Individual responses also vary. A questionnaire cannot turn those changing factors into a reliable personal probability, so the tool avoids a medical-looking risk score.

Instead, it highlights choices that may be worth considering. Motion is generally felt differently in different parts of a vessel, and an open-ocean itinerary can encounter more sustained swell than sheltered-water travel. Forecast conditions can still override broad expectations.

Use medical guidance for prevention or treatment

If you have concerns about motion sickness, medication, pregnancy, a medical condition or interactions with other medicines, use guidance from a qualified health professional or an appropriate public-health source. This tool does not recommend drugs or doses.
