I need to know....

The partner really wants to go an a cruise, it’s literally her dream holiday.

I unfortunately am renowned for getting motion sickness (can barely use my phone while in a passenger seat of the car lol)

How good are these ‘motion sickness’ tablets everyone talks about. Will they be good enough so that I can enjoy the holiday.

What will you do with bubs?

Not that I've been on a cruise ship but I'd gather they'd be pretty placid, but this from someone who can't sit on a train facing the rear.

My first experience was on the Abel Tasman across allegedly the roughest waters in the world, the waves were coming up 3 or 4 levels high, I was as crook as I've ever been.

I just got pissed before boarding the return leg, it seemed to work.

This isn’t a right now thing. But I don’t want to a promise a holiday that may never happen

One of my staff went on a cruise to NZ in March.
Rough waters, bad storms, she will never go on another cruise.
The Motion Sickness tablets worked, but by them before you go, buying them on the ship meant refinancing her mortgage...

Sounds like you are taking the job offer

Sounds like he's trying to be on an offer as much as he can.

At my old work I went out to sea for a couple of weeks per year

Sea sickness tablets work pretty well, but if you are prone to it you will still feel crook for a day or two (I used to get sick every time). Getting your sea legs is a real thing though. You do feel better after a day or two, even if it’s really rough.

You start taking the tablets the night before, then one per day after that. They do make you drowsy a bit but given it’s a holiday where you want to relax anyway that might not be a bad thing.

There are two major types of tablets too. Kwells and Avomine/Phenegran. I HATED the kwells. They made me feel worse, and made my mouth super dry. The Avomine were great though. Others liked the kwells. So maybe buy both (they are like $10 from the chemist) and try them out.

Having said that a cruise ship is the most stable thing you would ever go on, so you would have to be pretty rough to even notice more than a slight rocking.

I don't tend to get sea sick, but I get shocking sea legs. Even one day on the water and it stays with me for days afterwards.

I had a bout of that last Saturday night.

^ this.

Years ago I caught the hydrofoil from Glenelg jetty to Kingscote. Spent most of the trip up on deck with my head hanging over the side. Full sea breeze in the face was the only thing that calmed me down.

For the return leg I killed a few hours in the Ozone Hotel just before boarding ... and I was right as rain.

Beer. Is there anything it can't cure?

One of my staff on her Cruise, they had to empty the on board fountain, pool etc among other things....

Some of the tablets can make you feel pretty sleepy apparently. I took Travel Calm daily on the first cruise I did and they seemed fine, although Im not sure I really needed them. 2nd cruise didn't use them and no problem.

Apparently you can go to the Doctor on board and get a shot for about $80 and it sorts most people out no worries. Cruising is my kinda holiday, lazy,plenty of things to do, plenty of people to meet over a drink or 20.

It's on my "to-do" list, about 3 holidays away.
