If you got on a random flight every day, it would be 22,000 years before anything happened to you - and the odds are that you would survive.

Just chill. If it really gets to you, go on a course for nervous passengers provided by the major airports (but it will probably cost you more than your ticket!).

Learn some yoga style breathing to help yourself to keep your stress levels lower ,and more manageable. How long is the flight going to be?

i know its a bit extreme but why dont you try hypnosis. You might be able to determine a reason why your so worried and overcome it!

[stylinsam]

only 4 hours not long

There's more chance of having a car accident than a plane accident (that's if you travel by car!) Do you think there'd be so many pilots and flight attendants if there was a high risk? I don't like flying because of the pressure in the cabin but it sure is a great way of going long distances and well worth the discomfort.

stylinsam, i know exactly how you feel, i'm not going till Sept but as soon as we booked in March, i began worrying. It doesn't matter what anyone says or any statistics, if you're scared, you're scared. I am only flying to Spain!!!! I have a 2 1/2 year old son to look after but if i didn't, i definately would go to my doctor and see what sort of sedative he could offer me. extreme maybe but if it helps, why not,either that or get a little bit p****d! Not too much though else you'll get thrown off the flight! lol
