But depending on your choice, some beverages will dehydrate you and others that can taste different to how they normally would because of the altitude. Travel experts have shared the drinks to choose from and the ones to avoid. According to Travel + Leisure, ginger ale is the tastiest drink to consume while flying. It comes as a passenger’s taste buds alter on a plane due to both the dry air and cabin pressure. But, ginger ale is said to retain its taste more than other drinks, therefore making it a better choice from the trolley. For anyone feeling nauseous when flying, ginger ale is brilliant to help settle the stomach.READ MORE: New cruise ship community will live at sea – ‘magical’ Travel expert on the two drinks you should always order on a flight – and the one to avoid (Image: GETTY)Nutritionist Lauren Grosskopf said: ‘Ginger helps ease stomach upset with nervous flyers.”For those who dislike the taste of ginger beer, sparkling water is also said to be able to help settle the stomach. A Travel Lens expert explained: ‘If you’re an anxious flyer and your stomach feels like it’s in knots due to nerves, then sparkling water is a great option to go for if the airline has it available. ‘The carbonation associated with sparkling water helps to settle the stomach, which will hopefully leave you feeling more relaxed.”DON’T MISS…Meghan Markle avoided a ‘look at me’ Jubilee outfit for key reason [STYLE]Starbucks Christmas food and drink menu unveiled [NEWS]’Winning at life’ Most successful star sign named [LIST] Ginger ale is said to help settle the stomach (Image: GETTY)As for how many drinks passengers can request onboard a flight, one flight attendant explained the rules. On a Reddit forum, they said: ‘Two cans of soda are totally fine and it’s ok to ask.’Alcohol is a different story though since it’s hard to keep track of who had how much so it’s one drink at a time only.”
