Anyone on TWTD struggle with it as well? Bricking myself over tomorrow's 3hr flight to Romania. It's such a p*ssy move I know, and I must have flown about 50 times in my life so I don't know why I've got worse with age.
Hate the uncomfortableness of turbulence and all the plane moving up and down. Again, I know it's not dangerous, just scares fck out of me.
Advice appreciated... |  | | |  |

Same, although not quite as bad nowadays. Body just tenses up, nothing I can do to stop it. Remember you're going over land for 90% of the flight, if the engines fail you can still glide into an airport. I think. Also take a look at a flight tracker app showing hundreds of planes not crashing. |
On 11th September 2001, the worst ever day for aviation, tens of thousands of commercial airliners didn't crash.
On 10th September 2001, none did.
On 9th September 2001, none did.
Etc.
Etc.
So even if you had bought a random ticket for a flight in September 2001, the worst ever month in aviation history, the odds of being on a plane that crashed were about a million to one. |  | | |
