Another Flight Coming up 19 April 14

[Lena McCann]

Fly to Iceland from Belfast International with Jet 2 on 19 April returning 21st.  Always good to check in her first!  Thankfully haven't suffered from the normal anxiety which would have started by now!

Must look up the flight path - I have found this a great help along with taking a window seat.  It helps to make flying normal for me.  I dare say I will have a few twinges before I travel but I have discovered I have those apprehensions by whatever method I travel.  I will be driving from Cairnryan to Northumberland in June.  I think I am more worried about that!

Thank you Elizabeth for your encouraging words as always.

Iceland looks an amazing place to visit so I hope you enjoy looking at all the interesting scenery and geographical features. Well done you for being more adventurous .Keep taking those tiny steps

just back from a walking holiday myself  off the tourist track just north of Alicante in Spain. Both flights were fine  and the walking was good too. Best wishes,

Elizabeth.

Dealing with a fear of flying needs constant attention and avoiding letting your guard down ... but it's all good experience ... as long as you allow it to be good ... 

most people's profile on linked in Facebook and all the rest fail to mention that they haven't been in an incident ... how come fearful flyers always manage to find those exceptions!!! hope you're smiling about it Lena cos that's an amazing coincidence.

By the way  I saw a car with the registration  BRT 735N what an amazing confidence too! And it was red.

Thank you David and Captain Keith as well for your words of support.  Although I have a confession to make about doing something foolish!  Whilst perusing someone's profile on the Internet I discovered they are a survivor of the Kegworth Air Disaster 1989.  Of course I read their interview about what happened!  Not a good idea at anytime but especially less than two weeks before a flight -even though there were more survivors than fatalities.  I think it is the fact I know the person but didn't know concentrated my thoughts in the wrong direction. Will have to work on that before I travel!

Sounds great Lena. You are an inspiration to the rest of us! I hope you can enjoy the travelling as well as going to what must be a wonderful place. Someone I know from work here in Norfolk is planning to go there about the same time as you and they are really looking forward to it. Best wishes,

David
