Hello, panic, my old friend
Why must we do this thing again?
I've nine more hours til I have board
I feel so hot and sure enough, behold
My stomach churns with apprehension and dreads the morn
When I'm airborne
It is the dread of flying!

Eek. I've felt the same way, so I'm with you. The more you do it, the better it gets... in my opinion. If that doesn't work, just see if you can score some kind of anti anxiety medication from a friend/relative and enjoy the experience. ;D

Oh, trust me, I've done this PLENTY of times. -.-;; That's what makes this annoying. I've been flying since I was eight weeks old.

At least tomorrow I'll have my good friend Bailey to keep me company. Or at least I will on the Orlando-Sacramento flight, I don't think they'll be selling booze on a 0945 flight.

Who's Bailey?

[dark_puck]

Bailey's Irish Cream.

I was told to suggest chewing gum.

Doesn't work me -- triggers the gag reflex, and then it's all over.

[netquiddler]

Was worth a shot, my friend.

Oh, do I sense a Simon and Garfunkel lyric?

I have the same problem. I get all worked up before the flight and on layovers, and I'm white-knuckled on the takeoff and landing, but that's mainly because of my Azorian Flight Adventures. During the actual flight, I'm bored to death.

Might I suggest to bring a towel and a copy of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy along? After all, scrawled in large, friendly letters on the cover are the words "Don't Panic".
