B Correct answer
Explanation

Queasy means feeling nauseous or sick to the stomach. The context is sitting in an airplane (often associated with motion sickness), so 'nauseous' is the correct meaning. 'Anxious' means worried, 'comfortable' is the opposite, and 'jovial' means cheerful - none fit the physical stomach discomfort.
