Oh! So your'e going to be a pilot for an airline! That's great!
I don't know how it is like to fly a plane, but I think how it would be since I have had a trip in one, you do get very nervous when it is about to take off, and even more nervous when it tkakes off! I'm sorry if this is not helping but I'm sure you will do fine, since every pilot always does..

Ow, for first timers it will always be an scary flight. You will get nervous at first because you really dont know what will happen. There is always this thought behind that the airplane will crash anytime. lol. Im just paranoid. hahaha. But, believe me, its an experience you will never forget. Anyway most first time experiences are treasured. The view is spectacular. Just the thought that your miles away from the ground is so thrilling. You will enjoy it. just relax.

Nice to hear that. I will be flying for my frist time in last week of this April (next month). I am so excited about.I am going to Delhi, the capital of India to viist Taj Mahal one of the seven wonders of the world.
The journey was planned three months in advance, now you made me a little nervous saying that you are nevous about the journey. This is my frist long trip with my husband after marriage.
Hope your first flight experience will be a great one. All the best. Happy mylotting.

I was also nervous the first time I travel via air because I do not know what to expect. But the take off is a thrilling experience. Then once you are on air, it will be a smooth ride you won't feel a thing as long as there is no turbulence. Turbulence makes you feel like you are on a bumpy road.
Enjoy your trip!

The first time I flew in an airplane I was twelve years old. I was in Houston on a family vacation and my aunt and father decided to surprise me and my brother by taking us on a one day trip to Dallas. Well, they didn't tell us ahead of time and sitting on the plane I wasn't so sure it was a good thing.
As the plane started to move forward to make it's way to the strip for take off I was a little nervous about it. My brother, who was about to enter the fifth grade and coincidentally was sitting next to woman who taught that grade in school, kept saying "Oh, God... we're moving." He was quite comical.
Anyway the plame took off and it was a quick flight and we had lunch in Dallas and went back to Houston. Oddly enough I don't remember the return flight. That was many, many years ago but when the plane taxis to the runway I still get this slight nervous feeling and as it starts it's climb and the engines are roaring and I feel that little gravitational pull I have to focus on being calm but then as soon as it levels off in the air and the fasten seat belt sign is turned off everything is fine.
Have a good and safe trip!

my first time.... umm... i don really remember. i was too young. but the flights i do remember were a lot of fun... its just awsome looking at the scene below.. and i used to always hope that we wud pass more clouds its a lot of fun.. and don't worry everything will be fine because flying is just wonderfull.. though you are not actually flying the plane is and you are in it so you (most of the times)cant even feel the difference... but all the same it depend on wat you want...
hope you enjoy your flight.. wish you a safe journey... best of luck.. trust me.. be confident and you'll enjoy it...
