I once travel to Guizhou in 2007. It was the first time I travel by plane. When I sat on it, I felt very happy. I went there with my parents. The plane is so quickly and it only took me a hour to the destination. If I choose train, it needs a night and a day. Due to the flight make discount for people, we enjoy many favourable and save a lot of time.

I love traveling by plane. I like it once we are up in the air. I don't really like take off or landing. Its great that you can travel so far and be someone where in a matter of hours. I wish I could go flying and traveling all the time though. Its just so expensive and having to deal with security is such a hassel. I'm way overdue for a trip and I hope it happens this year for me. The last time I traveled was last May when I went to Puerto Rico.

Once the plane leave the ground and reach the higher sky, the brain can not help imagining that I will become a bird flying in the sky. In fact, it is only a delusion. But I really enjoy it. Thanks for sharing.

I am very keen on traveling to different countries. The most practical way to travel to long haul destinations is by plane. My first flight was from London to Athens when I was 14 years old. At age 18 I took a one way plane journey from London to Helsinki. When I was 19 I went on a plane from London to Sfax via Tunis and that was a very bumpy journey. I went on a 10 hour flight from London to St Lucia when I was 19 years old. My longest trip was when I was age 20 and it was around the world. I got terrible ear pain every time I flew on a plane but in 1997 I was given a pair of ear planes that stopped all the pain. Since then I have enjoyed flying on planes but by train is always going to be my favorite way to travel. This summer I shall be flying from London to Vancouver.

I love the takeoff when the jet is speeding down the runway then lifts off the runway. However, in flight is extremely tiresome. The best thing about flying is that it gets you to your destination more quickly.

Traveling by air is some thing very interesting. It will be really a different journey through air, clouds and shall really enjoy the beauty of Nature. And, coming across beautiful and well planned cities look so nice from the air that we cannot describe them.
We come across beautiful sun sets and sunrises. Preferably we should select a seat after the wings....or in the middle.
Always aerial views are very interesting.

I travelled only twice by air and both were national travels. I am planning to make an international travel soon. I like travelling by air because it saves a lot of time. Now, the price of air tickes have come down. I am a little tensed about the international air travel because I am planning to travel alone. This is not a direct flight and I have to get down in two different places before reaching my destination.

traveling by air is very quickly, so we cannot enjoy our trip. we only need 1 hour or several minutes to arrive in our destination. we are not tired and enjoy the view around the trip..
i think traveling by air is better for business or urgent situation that we need to quickly arrive in our destination.
i like to traveling by car, and i enjoy it in every my traveling...

I fly every once in awhile, and I don't mind it, but I don't exactly like it either. My ears get really sore on the way down, it's really bad. People tell me to chew gum, which I did, but it didn't help much.
It seemed to me like its worse for me than for most people, but I don't know. I like the ease of travel, so I put up with it.

As far as I am concerned, I want to travell by air ,which I just can fly in the high shy and enjoy the blue shy around me. I guess that the feeling in my blood must be very wonderful. I am looking forward to seeing the travelling by air coming soon. But I still do not know when the chance will arrive. But I will try my best to make it ture.

I love to travel andd explore new places but it's the aeroplane part that I hate. The last flight we were on we hit some pretty bad turbulence and we were bouncing about for around twenty minutes and I ended up crying like a baby. I just felt so vulnerable up there in that little metal box so high up in the sky.
I would love to visit places like Australia, Fiji and New Zealand, but I don't think I could cope with being on an aeroplane for such a long time.

I used to enjoy flying because it was fairly reasonable in price and took a lot less time to get to a destination than driving. However, I used to fly back and forth from college several years ago and always flew by myself. I didn't have any friends or family on the plane with me. So...I think that's why I don't really enjoy flying anymore. I don't like the turbulence that makes the ride bumpy because it scares me with being in the air and feeling like I'm riding in a car! I've just had some bad experiences flying, but I don't have to fly too often, and maybe someday I'll like to fly again. We'll see! I'm glad you enjoy flying.

Yes. It is nice to have cheap ticket for traveling by flight. I also enjoy the convenience. Probably it is quite common in traveling around in China? But in US, I like to drive, not only because it is cheaper but you can see different life along your journey and meet many people.

I love flying, it is like rollercoaster in a funpark! And it is more comfortable to take 1hour in a plane than 9 hours in a car. Plus the benefit it is one of the safest ways of transportation compared to other options.

I prefer traveling by sea. I am a nervous flier and if I had to choose traveling by air or sea I would definitely pick traveling by boat unless if I had no choice. This fear of mine is probably caused by watching too much documentaries about air crashes.

going on travel by airplane might bring for some person the easy way to reach the place of planning but it also brings to some the fear ,i prefer going to travel by car or by ship because i feel it is safer ,
