I had my first flight when I was 23. It's a business trip about 5 months after I got my first job. I was so exciting that day, and the weather was very nice. I'm still thankful to my boss when I remember that.

My first flight was when I was 14 years old. I flew from London to Athens with my mum. Taking off was exciting and I liked seeing the view of the fields. Then the plane lifted into the puffy white clouds. I got pain in my ears and it was severe on landing. Luckily ten years later my friend gave me a pair of ear planes and I don't get anymore pain. I have flown around the world and to New Zealand. I like flying because it is quick but I prefer the train when that is practical.

sorry to comment your response so late.It was in 2001, wow,about 8 years ago. At that time ,I was on my college,and i had to spent more than 20 hours in the train on seat in order to go home or go to school. The train is not warm enough,it was horrible!

I experienced my first air travel 6 years ago. I felt very tensed, being my first flight ever. On the other hand, I was excited, and I can still feel the moment when we took off. Good thing I was traveling with a group of friends/officemates. The weather was not good too that time, but the flight went generally well.

I have never been into my first flight yet, but just in case my first flight would be tomorrow , im sure i can't sleep well. Mix of excitement ... i am afraid when i look down from heights so i guess the first flight would not enjoyable for me.

Yes,if you are an acrophobe ,it not a good thing to look down from the window of plane.and I am sure ,if you can relax yourself ,and keep your eyes in the plane,it is OK,you will enjoy the flight.

My first flight was when I was 20. My godfather brought me along on his business trip as an escort. I was very excited considering that I have never ride a plane before. Well, I was also a little bit scared during take off and during the first few minutes of the flight. Later on I was very much enjoying the trip.

I took my first flight when I was 17. My parents and I traveled to a distant city. I also felt a little afraid when the plane took off. But after a while, I begun to enjoy the fly. The scenery outside is magical and grand. The flight took 4 hours during the whole period I was very excited.

My first flight was last July 2007. It was actually a very memorable experience. I got nervous at first but eventually i get to enjoy my stay on plane. The view was so amazing i cant get myself to sleep. I was awake the whole flight enjoying the view and obeserving the other passengers. :)
