...first flight experience?

I had my first flight journey at the age of four.I was born in the middle east and it was my first travel to India.I was excited about the whole thing.I had seen planes in cartoons and in movies.But never did i go to an airport or be in aeroplane.I was excited to see the big airport and the things i could lay my hands though, though my dad did not allow to buy anything citing the cost.And then the security checks and walking with my parents to different terminals.Air India used to give toys for kids at that point of time and it was certainly exciting for a 4 year old.I sat with my parents.And during the 3 hour journey they gave us starters and meals and i absolutely loved it though i do not remember.I loved the plastic forks and spoons and the ketchup.Anyways, i was grounded to the seat and was not allowed to move around.I wanted to explore this whole plane.Plus another source of excitement was the earphones.I never knew what to say about it and went onto show how others are using it to airhostess. She taught what it is and how to use it.I loved listening to songs and turning on the different stations provided.There were many people in flight mostly Indians.Great to hear about your experience.Thanks!

Good my first experience was on 1975 the airplane are not as big today. I don't like air pocket and as I go along to date I hardly even feel we already arrived on the airport of destination Pilots are becoming expert. Yeah it is very nice to see the clouds forming figures on the sky and so as the beautiful scenery below seen when about to depart and so as to land.

I grew up an army brat so we were constantly moving -- overseas, back to the States, overseas again. Back in 1960, my father was already in Germany and my mother and us kids were joining him. We flew on the last prop plane to fly transatlantic. It was all jets after that. That flight was out of NY and it took 27 HOURS to fly to Frankfurt! Only one stopover early on in Newfoundland. Omigod! We were all sooooo sick, we couldn't stand up. It was miserable, mostly because it was so long. Three years later, we flew back to the States in one of those fancy new jets. It only took seven hours! I used to like to fly, but now it's a hassle with the TSA regulations and security measures. I understand that it's necessary and I have no problem complying, but it's just not fun anymore.

It was fun to ride a plane for the first time, only thing that scares me is air packets when the plane suddenly shakes up and down for some time then it vanishes That's it. Happy mylotting

i also belong to a middle class family..i also have many dreams..among which one of them is to sit and travel in an aeroplane..i hope mine also this dream gets fulfilled once i get a good job.

I was alone on my first flight (atleast that which I could cherish and remember well compared to when I was still 6y/o)and was my first time to go to a foreign land. I loved the take-off, it made my heart jump on excitement and I was always eager to hear the first bell sound that puts the seatbelt 'off' sign. Until now, "take-offs" would always be one of my favorites!

I was born in Japan. My first flight experience was when I was just 10 months old. And we came home in the Philippines because my grandfather had a stroke. So, basically, I have no recollection of that incident. A few weeks after, we went to my mom's hometown to visit my other grandparents. I remember my uncle told me that he once "borrowed" me from my mom so that I could spend sometime with my maternal grandmother in the province. Still, I could not remember that. I think the next flight experience was when I was about 7 years old. It was Summer and the family and I went to visit my mom's hometown for a week's vacation. Being old enough to understand how it was, I was excited! In a child's eyes, seeing the clouds almost within your reach was ecstatic!

I don't remember anything, because I was about 2 or 3 when my family travelled from Europe to Morocco, where my father had a job. The first one I remember was about 6 years ago, I think, when I travelled to Egypt. I loved everything about the flight. I know lots of people hate flying, but I love it. I love the adrenaline rush I get when the plane sets off, it's like a rollercoaster, and I love rollercoasters! :) And I liked how beautiful the sky or the grouind's view looked from the windows, and how it looked like when we were flying between clouds.

I was terrified. There was a storm on my first flight. I thought they are going to cancel it but no. While on the air, there were lots of turbulence and the shaking made me sick. I was praying the whole 1 hour of my flight and called all the saints I know.
