Fear of Flying.

[Zuth]

I love flying, done it so many times, first time I went on one when I was like 1 or something so I've been bought up flying. You just gotta remember that statistics show your safer in a plane that a car!

i've not been on an aeroplane since i was little so i'm sure what i'll be like now.

i've got a fear of heights tho so i probs won't like it. good luck flying anyway!

Flying is great, and if you can't fork out for a course as @xxMATTGxx said then the best thing for you to do is try to occupy your mind with something else for now - don't google plane incedents etc as this will just make you more nervous! Trust me the chances of your plane having any problem is low - they chance of that problem being serious is extremely low

Try not to get too worked up you'll be fine.

i hate flying, i always think the planes going to crash, explode or something and then i start overreacting and stuff, pretty scared of it..

Many have mentioned what I would say already, There are more problems on the road than actually in the air. I'm not sure how you can keep your mind off flying because you will be actually flying but maybe put together some of your favourite songs and listen to them as you are taking off which is more likely the obvious part of the trip, when it's levelled in the air it is quite a smooth journey. When I flew for my first time I cried too but I'm fine with it now and I'm always excited when we go abroad

Can't multi-quote on my phone, but thanks for all your responses!

Zuth: They may be statistically safer, but I suppose if something goes badly wrong, you're most likely not going to survive, whereas in a car you have a chance.

Jurv: Close the window when you next fly, or sit in the aisle seat ;D

Alpha: I probably won't be able to afford the courses, and from what I've learnt about the virgin flight courses, they don't look like they'll be much help for me D;

Jordan: I will try make a playlist for my ipod! I've flown many many many times, but only in the past few years I have developed a fear. Some people tell me its because I'm getting older and understanding how precious life is? Idk.

When I first went on a plane I really liked it but I've kinda get more scared each time I go on one. I just really hate taking off, once I'm up there I'm completely fine

You've just gotta think that you're much more likely to be in a car crash than a plane crash. Also, I kinda find not sitting next in the isle not as bad cause I don't feel as trapped? I guess as I would if I was sitting next the to window or in the middle of other people

I hate takeoffs - once you've taken off there's no escape. XD

I feel the same as you. I like sitting in the aisle because you can get up quickly if you need to etc.

i really hate heights and get vertigo when i'm on an incredibly tall building/bridge, but love flying and having the window seat (and looking out the window). full of contradictions right here.

I hate flying although I haven't done it for a couple of years now, I guess I hate it because I don't like heights and I get motion sick.
I also like watching those air crash investigation shows and you'd think you'd get more terrified from flying by watching them, but what I like is that they say what went wrong and how all planes have been modified now to minimise the chance of that happening again.
