Time to grow up.

Its fine, I love flying, I fly a ton, about 1 every other month with my dad.

Just listen to music or try sleeping for the take off and landing and what not but the view from a window seat is amazing.

Okay I love flying once I get up there but I always freak out the night before. If it's anxiety, bring your iPod, and kinda zone out, like just listen to your iPod, and not pay any attention to anything else. If you're worried about getting "air sick" get some Cloud Nine pills.

first of all, if u aint taking some african airlines, u r probably 99.99% safe....dats based on stats.

be happy and enjoy the food and tv on the plane...or take a nap...b4 u know it, u r there.

You are more likely to get in an accident on the way to the airport than in the plane.

Cornelius

dont worry, airplane travel is the safest mode of transportation.

like nike say, "just do it."

Want an answer from a pilot? Well, do like us: sit back, relax, enjoy the flight! That's what we do! Oh, and two rocks with the scotch, thanks!!

I've been on hundreds of planes. I don't know anyone who's ever been injurrd in a plane. I know many people who have been injured in cars, including myself. You're safer in a plane than a car. I suggest walking to the airport!

atticussept

I was scared my first time too but once you get into the air it is so cool the cars look like little toys or if you don't like looking out close the window. I promise it is really not that bad

I recomend you watch the movie ALIVE, and ull overcome your fear.

Flying is amazing.......I love it but people who don't usually take a valum or some other sort of muscle relaxer before a flight, same thing for a surgery or stuff like that....

first of all you said you are looking forward to your holiday. that is positive. I too have been nervous of flying. I suggest a reading a book, getting some rest, and talking to your family if you are having difficulty,.
think about your holiday and how much fun you are going to have.

it will be okay.
and then you can feel proud that you made it!!
good luck

Bring a good book to read on your flight, it works for me.

Flying isn't scary it's just boring most of the time.
You'll see.

Take-off can be a bit overwhelming but then they serve the meal and there is so much to do on there too. After the meal they turn the heat up in the cabin and it's hard not to fall asleep. You'll wake up and be in your destination. You'll be fine. Lots of people are nervous fliers, just take a few deep breaths before you board and keep it together. If you freak out it might make others freak out too and nobody wants that. Good luck.

Nothing to be scared of, you have more of a chance that you are in a car accedent, flying is the safest way to travel

i found the best way to face a problem is to face it head on. Cars crash everyday planes dont in fact a plane could land itself on autopilot just sit back and relax there are very high security at airports and is no need to be afraid of anything happening i travel on a plane 6 to 10 times a year its no big deal just bring an ipod

mystique, supervillainess

yeah i don't blame you just don't seat aisle window, sleep maybe take some book to read or some games to occupied your self,.

take my â™¥, it's broken

make sure to bring gum. there are 2 reasons.
1) your ears will pop and it hurts and 2) it helped relieve stress

Just keep it out of your head. When you are at the airport, don't be thinking omg, omg, omg, omfg! just think about another thing or place, like how much fun it will be wherever you are going.

But the number one thing, is don't think about crashing. You have a better chance of getting into a car crash, fire, collapsed building all together that being in a plane crash.

Hope I helped! =]
Good Luck!

I was so scared when I took my first flight I thought I would die. Now I love to fly. It's just mind over matter. The best way to conquer your fear is to face it head on with confidence and courage. I predict you will find it an enjoyable experience once you get settled in on the plane. Just get the earphones from the flight attendant and listen to music, you will be fine.
PS... the view is AWESOME!

rahul01cute

my daughter also gets scared on the flights. I engage her in stories and movies so she forgets the flight ascent

I'm terrified of flying so I'm thinking about Tylenol PM-ing it so I can relax.

Honestly once you're in the air you'll be fine. Take off is always uncomfortable to most, but after that its smooth sailing (unless there's turbulence which can be scary too).

butters

honestly it will be scary but plane cashes don't really happen just remember that it will be over before you no it

raafcadet94

listen to music bring gum that will help.... Lol I'm a pilot so that means I ain't scared of planes... Lol but I only got my Gliders Licence going for my mini aircrafts licence.... Soz that last bit didn't help.

NONAME

seriously when your on the plane you have no idea your that high. im serious its so quiet and peacful. just make sure to chew A LOT of gum okay? cuz theres a good chance your ears will pop. but seriously therres nothing to be worried about. heres a few statistics that hopefully will help you out

over 50 million planes land successfully every day

the chances of dying on a plane are 1/1000000000000

statistics prove theres more chance of dying on the way to the airport than on a plane.

plus youll be more occupied with the cramped seating then your fear

have fun XD

Put yourself to sleep. Traveling in a plane is actually safer than a car in most instances. Bring your iPod and some stuff to keep you busy.

For sleeping, try Benadryl or Nyquil.

The Dweeb

When you are boarding, just consistently put one foot in front of the other and don't stop. Keep in mind that you are safer on a plane than in a car.

Kaitlynn
