nervousness gettin on an airplane is a very common,, dont feel alone man,, for me i take a dramamine, because i get motion sickness on the plane,, so that relaxes you and makes you sleepy. I would possibly suggest get there early,, make sure everything goes well, double check everything, and just dont think about it in a negative thought, i think the stats say you have more of a chance of dying by getting eaten by a shark, than dying in a plane crash,,, so in the end, just relax bro,, breathe and think about the cool places your going to..!

The doctor will actually give you a pill to relax you. Its a good idea cause the flight to France is long. Reality is you have a lot better chance of being in a car accident or getting hit walking your dog than a plane crash.

If it weren't for my co-worker's fear of flying, I wouldn't have been to Denver for training.
I suggest a few drinks before the flight and get an aisle or window seat... don't sit bitch.

I broke over 250,000 miles this year flying.. and I will still get another 10k in before the end of the year.. I honestly don't worry about it anymore.
Though I still hate sitting in the back for 16 hours at a time. Thats worse then the fears others have.

parker, dont worry about it. You have a worse chance of getting hit by lightning while getting eaten by a shark while driving home to walk your dog.

Its rare for a plane to crash. I think theres a thousand planes in the sky at a time. I believe it was found that its the safest way to travel. I get nervous only when the plane drops a few hundred feet in a second or so from turbulance and its because i went on Drop Zone at Great America a couple of days before i went to Florida i think. Now its just stuck with me. I hate Drop Zone.

no its just being reported more since that one incident where the passengers got to watch their airplane fly around before it crash landed on bad landing gear.
Also if your going to drink before you fly you better be a calm drinker, if you act up you will be arrested. They aren't standing for that crap anymore.

You just have to take into account how many flights there are versus how many crash. Out of the thousands of flights a day theres what, maybe two crashes a month? I can't remember the last time a plane went down over the Atlantic. When I flew over there I was kinda trippin, especially when I saw ice burgs in the water. Just get really f'd up because its a 10 + hour flight.

In my previous life I had to fly in some pretty bad airplanes. I remember one, we had a hard time taking off and climbing because the engines were just barely legal. Not that they were leaking, just low on power. We made it from Florida (Ft. Walton Beach) back to Mountain View (Moffett Field) with no real problems.
Seriously, don't sweat flying. As has been said before, there's less air crashes than car, train, or even walking. You stand a better chance of getting hit by a bus crossing a street than going down in an airplane.

what ever you do, dont run up and down the isles yelling "were gonna crash!" becuase now there are air marshalls on most planes and they probably shoot you and turn the plane around.
