Hello.
Welcome to HealthcareMagic forum.
The dizziness you felt on the flight is quite a common problem during flights. You try having lozenges and mouth fresheners during the flight, avoid taking a window seat, do not look down out from a window and read magazines sitting on passage seat.

This is quite common problem and many a times can be triggered by preformed psychosis also. keep your stomach light. Lemon or citrus fuits,or sucking of aam papar, reduce this senation. you can have anti emitic one hour before flight and enjoy journey trouble free or close your eyes and divert your attention on something else than travel. get you hypertension also checked. By the way are you anxiety ridden personality.
