I'm not a frequent flier. But still so far, I have taken flight travels for about 16 times. Out of this 4 were during my international trips. The rest were domestic travels. How about you? How many times have you taken an air travel in your life so far?

hi smilyn...i've flown four flights over the years. i like the way semi-trucks look like toys when you are ascending up and over them. but i don't want to fly again if i can help it because of the extra security now. if i could fly on a private plane that's another matter. it is quite remarkable to rise above the clouds.

I am not a keen flier to be honest and it took a lot of courage to get on a plane in the first place, I think it took me 26 years to actually get on a plane and 36 years to get on a place on my own! I have flown about half a dozen times in my life time and one of the main reasons about putting off going to New Zealand is the length of the flight. I only fly if I really have to but I would prefer flying than sailing.

I live in Italy and go backwards and forwards to UK very often. It's a trip of about one and a half hours and it's so easy it's like catching a bus. I can leave my house here and be at my mother's in less than seven hours so when I see a cheap trip I go I've been backwards over 30 times I guess.

I only have taken a flight travel once. I want to take air travel more, but i can't afford it at the moment.

I have taken flight in between 15-20 times. Since my hometown is on another land, I need to take flight frequently to go back home and visit my mother. Sometimes, I also need to go the capital city by air from the place I am staying when my husband have some official work there. These are all domestic flight. The furthest I have been traveled to is to London, UK, which has been taken about 12-13 hours to reach. I just traveled there last year September with my husband. :)

For the past 12 years I have taken flights across the Atlantic. My husband is British and I live in the USA. Some years we make more than one trip across the Atlantic. We fly from Manchester to Chicago. Round trip that is almost 10,000 miles. I have probably travelled 500,000 miles by air since I moved to the USA in 1960. We flew once from Illinois to Pensacola Florida, but when I am in the US I drive mostly when I travel. We also took a vacation in Spain and flew there too.

Hello smilyn! I have travelled through air only once and that's the time where my husband and I met in person for the first time. We went to Cebu, Philippines together to go to the US consular office.
