How are you feeling today, after the flight?

I made the mistake once of Googling the type of aircraft I'd be in, and found lots of accidents and incidents listed. But then I remembered what Captain Keith says - the airline industry is one of the most heavily regulated industries. An airline is…

Della,
I can only hope for 1% of the transformation you encountered. That should be enough to get me through the trip without a complete collapse of my mental state.

It's no problem landing on on engine...it'e easy to do and nowadays most engines are 'shut down' ie turned off as a precaution rather than because something is badly wrong.
Good for you saying that you are going to enjoy the flight...that's…

I've never traveled with Aegean so I have no idea how their flights are. Olympics, despite all the delays, is definitely one of the best airlines i flown with. I know most people that are afraid of flying usually get nervous during take off and land…
Well, anastasia I don't know if the Olympic Airlines pilots have served in the air force before, but I did hear that the Aegean airlines ones are mostly retired air force pilots. I don't know though if previous service, even a whole past career, on…
Hey Anastasia
After a long period of NOT flying at all, I regularly fly to Greece to see my boyfriend who lives there, I've had 4 return flights there since January. The latest one was so smooth, I slept o a plane for the first time in my life. I'm…
Wow Rafael that must have been very scary for you. I'm glad everything turned out well. I've heard that Greek pilots are some of the best ones because they are allowed to fly commercial planes only after going to the air force. When I heard that it…
Hi Rafael
I'm sure that far from being worried by your account many people will identify with it and find comfort in it...that's just the way it is with a fear of flying. Before I say anything else it's curious that fearful flyers can be upset by '…
Hello there,
My first post as well. This unpleasant feeling is new to me and something in my mind keeps telling me to fight it now before it grows even more... I have been flying frequently since 1983 when i was about 7 and up until a few years ago,…

- Hello Della... a warm welcome to you.
Thanks for joining the network and I hope you’ll find it useful. Our aim is to give help support and encouragement to anyone who has a fear of flying. If you want to tell us your story please do so, if you prefer to just observe and pick up hints and tips from people then that’s fine too. We want you to use the network in the way that’s best for you.
I’m here to answer any of your questions and I‘ll try to do so as quickly as I can although sometimes I get a bit busy and miss some posts. Just keep pestering me and I’ll answer you.
If you think there’s something we should add to the network, let me know and I’ll see if we can incorporate it.
Finally an apology for this slightly less than personal welcome...as you can imagine keeping up with things is very time consuming and there are many calls on my time...but rather than not acknowledge your joining I thought this pre-recorded message would be slightly better!
And finally finally to those of you who joined ages ago and who I missed welcoming on the day you signed up a special apology.
I look forward to meeting you through the network. There is a chat facility which I keep open whenever I’m on line so just click the button and you can IM me.
