Think of it this way Ron. You'd face a far higher percentage of something going wrong traveling by a car many miles than traveling by plane. Take some Dramamine and relax, and if that doesn't cut it order a Rum and Coke as soon as your able! You'll be fine!

Ya know, I think it's more to do with not being in control. Heights don't really bother me and I've logged about 100,000 flying miles up to '87, so it's nothing new to me. I really don't know why I feel like I do, but I can't seem to shake it!!!

First decide if its the plane travel that makes you nervous. if so, what was your last flight like? get some gravol or something if you think your prone to motion sickness, dose yourself before boarding is the best. could help you sleep on the flight also I find the best way to fly is unconcious. for me having a plan to face my fear helps deal with it. hope the trip is great.

Okay folks, I need a little help here. Without going into detail, I'm taking a long weekend trip this weekend...something I haven't done in a very very long time. I haven't flown since '87 and as the time draws near I'm having a really difficult time wrapping my mind around the idea of plane travel and am getting more and more nervous as the day draws near (Friday). I've always considered myself to be a strong willed person, but this is really affecting me...no appetite, naseau, unfocused at work, etc...is there anyone that can help me out with this??? Please...???
