What To Do For Kid Falling Sick After Travelling?

My 5 year old daughter seems to always get sick after traveling. Whether it's a long car or airplane ride she often gets ill 24 hours after traveling. She usually is very listless and vomits. She sometimes gets a fever. Why is this happening? I've been assuming that she is getting dehydrated during the travel, which is causing her symptoms. Should I talk to her pediatrician about this?
