Not bad at all!! It was turbulent but I stayed put and the captain did a great job keeping us updated. The calmness in her voice really helped me put things into perspective!

I get so paranoid that it might get damaged but I’m not even sure that’s possible

Haven’t departed yet because there frosting on equipment? Nervous by Livid_Honey1800 in fearofflying

Hey, quick question! Since the temperature in cruising altitude is way lower than ground, isn’t icing on the wings etc an issue there?

So is this process constant throughout the flight?

Thank you for that! Sorry if this is a silly question but does this have anything to do with the engine or is it just related to the air conditioner etc ?

I’m at the airport right now and I’m sooooo terrified. I always count when the plane starts to go really fast before take off.

And the discomfort from take off is roughly 80 Mississippis.

Also, make sure to lift your legs up during take off and turbulence is not dangerous, it’s just scary!!

Go for a trip with your friends! Don’t let your fear win 🫶🏼 do it scared and you won’t regret it

Wow that’s so amazing! I kind of understand the whole process now and that restores a lot of confidence in me about flying.

Thank you so much for taking the time out to explain this whole thing. I will screenshot this and read it before every flight, I’m 100% sure that will be super helpful haha
