    If it’s vasovagal syncope it’s probably unpleasant. Can cause sweating, confusion, and a bunch of other problems because your brain isn’t getting enough blood to function.

        I bet a little prep and informed management of the situation can resolve it for her. It’s important to keep blood pumping to get it out of lower extremities and into the brain. Walking in the aisles and leg exercises while seated are easy options.

        Elevating the legs + lowering the head can also help. If she does pass out, laying her down and lifting her legs can quickly get blood to the brain. Alcohol and large meals can exacerbate it. Good luck!

          Thank you for the advice. It’s really appreciated. I’ll communicate it to her and we’ll see if it helps during our next trip. :)
