Some people can't stand to fly in an airplane. I've never traveled in an airplane before so yeah I would be somewhat nervous.

Being nervous flying is understandable. Maybe because we are not in control and that is what put us in this situation. Just try to think positive and enjoy the flight. I love being in an airplane during take-off but hate the moments before landing. Scenery you get to see at 20000ft above the ground is to die for, literally.

I like to fly. I didn't start until I was in my late thirties so it has kind of retained some of it's excitement for me. I can't always afford the ticket prices so I don't fly very much. I find myself shopping around a lot. The airlines must really be in trouble now that they're charging you piece-meal for various things they used to include in the price of a ticket.

Oh and try not to be nervous. It's still one of the safest modes of transportation. Don't dwell on it and you will be alright. I'll bet you didn't think about what could happen when you first started driving.

I love flying; it's really magical to be in the clouds. I would fly more if they took better care of my wheelchair. They break my very expensive, customized wheelchair by treating it like common baggage (which it isn't).

My first flight was to Greece when I was 14 years old. I liked taking out and seeing a view before lifting higher into the white clouds but when the plane began to descend before landing I got terrible ear pain. I carried on flying for another 10 years before a friend gave me a pair of ear planes. Wow! They took all my ear pain away. When I was flying home from Kenya I got a superb view of the pyramids and when I went to the Maldives I got an excellent view of the islands and the reef. Traveling is my top hobby and whilst train is my favorite way to travel I have to fly sometimes. It is the only practical way to travel from England to New Zealand for example. Flying is a quick and convenient way to reach any country in the world. I hope that you have your first flight soon and will enjoy this experience.
