Default Seasickness

I have a non-boating friend who's going on a cruise next
week. He's concerned about seasickness. I told him ginger is
a good cure. I bought him a box of Ginger Snaps ( more for a
joke ). Should he start munching on these before he steps
onboard or wait till / if he feels bad?

Go with the ginger - its one of the few non-medical solutions that
actually works. My wife swears by it. Make sure he munches a few
before boarding.

Of course, there will be no motion on a proper cruise ship, so all
you're actually doing is giving him a reason to believe there should
be no problem.
