British Midlands made a dvd for nervous passengers and are selling it on their website i think. Don't think it is in the shops. |

I think most airline companies do that today, hope you find what your looking for and eventually pluck up the courage to go on a flight, don't do what I did and wait until your nearly 50 though will you, its good fun even for me who's claustrophobic, all the best and hope you enjoy your holiday. |

There are several courses you could do contact the airline/airport customer services dept. When you book your flight let them know you are a nervous passenger and they can arrange pre boarding so you can get on and get settled, most airlines are really helpful and will be on hand through out the flight to reasure you. What ever you do do not drink a lot of alcohol you can be refused boarding and it can also make you more anxious. Try using relaxation tequniques such as close your eyes clear your mind and imagine you are walking along the edge of the sea sun on your back and waves lapping over your feet. There are tons more if that one doesnt help |

Average Aerophobes
*Opt for the biggest aircraft and a window seat close to the front (you’ll feel less turbulence).
*Tell the flight attendant and the pilot that you’re afraid. They’ll talk you through the weather, the equipment, and address specific concerns. (They’ve done it before.)
*When you do experience turbulence, roll with it. Literally, sway with the movement of the plane. And pretend you’re going over potholes in the sky.
*In-seat strategies: Breathe deeply and listen to calming music to block out minor sounds and annoying neighbors. Try herbal remedies. Use the airsick bag to prevent hyperventilation.
*Avoid caffeine but drink lots of water: Dehydration increases anxiety.
White-Knuckle Flyers
If you’re even more averse, the Achieving Comfortable Flight pack of booklets, tapes, and cards was created by a former pilot and a psychologist to teach you about the machinery (planes have back-up systems for nearly everything), pilot training (as intensive as a doctor), and storms (the FAA requires avoiding them by twenty nautical miles). You’ll also learn positive imagery techniques. Don’t laugh.
Panic Buttoners
Download pilot and therapist Tom Bunn’s Soar podcast for tactics on conquering your fear of losing control. His soothing, paternal voice will have you gliding through check-in, turbulence, and landing. Want more attention? He also does weekly telecoaching and private consultations.
The Last Resort
For the truly terrified, the Fear of Flying Clinic offers training weekends (provided you can get there) with a pilot, flight attendant, airline mechanic, and air traffic controllers, all of whom explain safety, aerodynamics, and weather — much of it inside an airplane. Orientation flights are optional — and seriously helpful.
Now get your head in the clouds. |

Forget courses. Here is what you do. Half an hour before you get on the plane, drink 3 large gin and tonics. It works. Did you know that no-one is afraid of flying? Its true. Its CRASHING that they are scared of. |
