I actually am scared of going on planes when I was younger because I was scared that the plane would fall into the ocean. Right now though I don't think I would be to scared well maybe I would because I am scared of heights I don't know why. Oh wait I'm scared of heights because I have fallen of a high place before ouch at least I survived and that's what I am thankful for. Still one day I want to travel still what can make me less scared of riding on a plane any advice???

I'm not scared of planes and heights,traveling with a plane is much more safer than going with a car.Much more people die in car accidents than in plane accidents.Up in air is safer than on the ground.Most of the plane accidents happens at take off or landing,not in the air. Try to relax,enjoy your flight and forget about the heights.

I am not scared of flying and I think it's very safe to take a plane and I just want to enjoy the trip.^^ Maybe you shouldn't care about heights so much.

I wish that I couldn't care about the heights so much, but I still do get scared when ever I go up in high places. I guess I feel like this because I had a really bad fall from a very high place.

Hi anime!^^ I am not scared of riding an airplane. I've been in an airplane a couple of times when I was still a student. I went to college to a far place and my mother won't let me travel by water so I always traveled by air. I was never scared too when it was my first time. But I was nervous. I didn't think though that the plane would fall. I was nervous because it was a new experience to me. What scared me was being in the airport. The airport was so big and there were so many people I thought I might get lost.^^;; And in fact, I kinda like riding an airplane. It makes me feel rich. And it's nice to fly within the clouds. But I enjoy traveling by water too. I guess I just enjoy traveling a lot whatever the mode of transportation is.^^

When on a plane the view is the clouds once the plane is in the air. There will be landscape views just after take off and before landing. I suggest using the eye mask in your travel pack if you feel scared on the flight. Many people are scared of heights. I have been on many planes and I have stayed safe every time I have flown. My favorite flights were Fifi to Sydney, Male to Gan return, Male to London and Mombasa to London via Cairo. These days I don't like the liquids rule at airports. I like to drink water because it is a healthy thing to do. I have a challenging time when I have to fold my children's buggy before it goes through security. I travel with my baby girl and my toddler son that can't walk. Good luck with feeling happier about flying on a plane.

You are lucky to not be scared of flying. Well I know why you are cautious around muslims I think we all feel like that at times.
