    “This is your pilot speaking. There’s some turbulence up ahead. I’m gonna try to dodge it. Hold onto something.”

    Last flight I went on the pilot announced, “We’re in for some slight turbulence for the next hour”. After 45 minutes of shaking he then dropped, “We should be out of the turbulence in the next hour.”

        “We’re coming up on some BNSF track up ahead, someone will be around with a complimentary barf bag shortly.”

      Oof, I’d 100% puke. So far only happened once but it was only like 10 minutes of bad turbulence that got me. I always double check for a vom bag now and bring a toothbrush in my purse just in case

      You can’t really mistake plane steering vs actual turbulence though. But it’s a funny idea, for sure.

        Depends on the turbulence. That sick falling in a hole type of turbulence wouldn’t be possible to simulate. That up and down and side to side stuff that keep you drink sloshing could possible be.
