what was your first time on a plane like, and how did you feel?

My first time going abroad was only last year in june. Anyway, I was obviously scared to board the plane, as ive heard of plance crashes and things. As we boarded the plane and sat down my tummy was flipping and i was very nervous lol, as we were going down the runway i thought i may aswell prepare myself, and then when we went up into the air it was such a strange feeling, but relief that id gone through it. When the plane was landing, i actually really loved it lol.

Also i absolutely loved seeing all the views from the plane window, it was amazing.
anyway what was your first time on a plane like?

I went on my first flight when I was 14 years old. I flew with my mum from London to Athens. Taking off I found quite exciting and the view over the landscape was lovely until the plane went into the puffy white clouds. Sadly before landing when the plane was descending I got the most awful ear pain. Ten years later a friend gave me a pair of ear planes, plastic screw like things, that stopped all my ear pain when flying.

My first plane ride was in the 1970's when planes were still somewhat of a novelty. My mother described how big a plane is up close but no explanation could cover how big they actually are when you first see them. This was back in the day when the wined and dined you on a flight. That helped me a lot since I was so nervous. I had a lot of the same reaction that you did. What really sticks out in my mind is how quickly all the detail like people, cars, houses, etc., disappeared. It made me realize how small we all are and how our troubles can seem so large sometimes but in comparison to the world they suddenly seem small.

Well my first time on a plane was a long time ago, when I was 9 or 10.
I didn't really worry about anything but mainly I was excited to finally be going on a plane. The trip was to Portugal because i'm Portuguese and I have family there in the algarve.
There was a bit of turbulence but I found it very adventerous and enjoyed all of it and have been flying every year since!

Although I'm a bit worried this year due to all the plane crashes in this early part of the year but I think I'll cope!

It was just a local flight and I was around grade school at the time so like you, I was also not sure of what would happen and all these bad images of possibilities came into mind. When the plane was running to take off, I firmly had a grip for my arm rest but, when we finally were flying, I slowly saw how high we were getting. The roof tops that we usually see eventually became smaller until you could somehow imagine yourself looking at a map~! lol

Some seats were vacant so I was able to go from seat to seat, look through the window on each side and I even felt this weird feeling that my uncle said that was normal when we're on high places.

When we landed, I was relieved happy

As for ur experience, you were scared and nervous at first, and then turned relaxed and joyful gradually. Mine was just opposite to urs.

The first time i took a plane, i felt so excited and curious at the beginning for novelty. Then from the dinner served to the view outside, I was interested in everything and couldn't understand why most passengers were just sleeping. Even I went to the WC twice though there was no need.

But when the plane began to land, I felt my ears hurt a lot and it became worse and worse. I tried swallowing hard as well as chewing gums as they told me, but it never worked. At last while we were off the plane, my ears kept aching and i could hardly hear. Feeling so scared that I began to cry. And they didn't recover all over until after nearly two days! What a nightmare!

Fortunately, since the second time I had a flying journey, my ears seemed to get accustomed and no longer hurt again. Thank God!

I was too excited to even worry! My first plane ride was 10 years ago to visit my brother in Singapore. It was fun to board the plane. And we all had a blast in Singapore!:)

Well personally as many times as I have flown on a plane I am still always a little scared until we are actually up in the air. I always make sure to say a lot of Prayers before boarding one and as we are flying as well. My first time flying somewhere was when I went to Arizona to see my MIL, and since then I have flown to Chicago and NYC as well. It is definately the fastest way to get somewhere when time is limited for sure.

Looks you had a good experience on your first time on a plane. I still remember that first time just like you do. But I have to admit I was very scare. I wanted to end up the flight quickly so bad. When the airplane took off my ears got plugged, and on top of that when we were at a certain level of high, I started hearing funny noise inside my ears. I have to put cotton balls inside them and try to relax and not to think about it. Otherwise, it will be so unconfortable if I would ahve pay attention to the problem. The only good part about the flight was when the plane started coming down. I could see everything so tiny and city full of lights because it was night time when the plane arrived. The funny noise in my ears stopped but I had a little bit of pain after I went to the motel. That was my first and last time. Until now I haven't planned to travel again. Maybe later, I hope next time the same thing doesn't happen to me again because I gotta admit, it's very annoying.

The first time I was on a flight was when I was about 12 years old. I remember going to visit Canada and as soon as the plane was going up it felt like the best feeling in the world. You could see the clouds and it seems like you're in heaven. The cars look like mini ants and you see everything. It's just so amazing.
