Hi there, 

It's been just over a year since I first looked on the website and started using some of Captain Keith's tips and strategies, as well as accessing the wealth of info he shares with us on here and in the book. Since then, I've had 2 enjoyable flights, both to Gran Canaria.... And a recent return flight to the UK that was not so enjoyable - but a good test for me!!

All of my most recent flights have been smooth, fair weather, turbulence-free flights, so coming in to…

Flying tomorrow morning from Belfast International to Newcastle on way to Alnmouth for Christmas Walking Holiday.

My thinking tries to play games with me for a few days before a flight but good to recognise,  it for what it is - turned the news off this evening when they were interviewing people re Lockerbie.  Whilst it did not disturb like it would have before though it best not to watch before a flight!

I'm Flying to Florida this Sunday.  I've been a fearful flyer for 15 + years.  Last summer I purchased the Flying Without Fear book, and it has made a big difference.  It used to be that the very act of purchasing tickets put me in a panicky state.  This time I was totally unfazed.  As the departure draws near I am getting just a bit antsy, but more than anything I am just looking forward to family and the holidays.  Good luck to all of the holiday flyers out…

Have told the kids we are going to Lapland now so no changing my mind about that flight now.

Nine days to go and OK at the moment but comes and goes in waves - using elastic band method & reciting Captain Keith's advice on regular (if not hourly) intervals !
