Congrats on overcoming the discomfort.
To me, it's all related to our mental state, if I think I am going to vomit then I surely will. For that, I always carry earphones while traveling so that I can keep my mind engaged fortunately I have never faced anything like this while traveling as I have always tried to have a positive mindset that these won't affect me.
The view from an airplane, like the one you have added is all we need to get lost, away from these thoughts.
one of my best way to distract those bad feelings is listening to a music, and it's completely work on me.
