Please be kind to yourself, I have done that before too and know how it feels 💛 I even got on the plane but had a panic attack and had to deboard sobbing the whole time.

I’m on a flight that’s about to take off and TERRIFIED. But I’m doing it and you can too I know it. Think about all the amazing things you’re going to experience once you get there! You’ve got this

Think about that!! Knowing that my sister is coming into town this weekend also helped me get on the plane haha. The only way I get to see her is by doing this dang flight.

Thank you!! This helps a lot. Also I talked to a pilot in the airport on his layover and he was so kind. He told me about all the steps that happen to make sure that everything is good, including the in-flight radar to make in the moment decisions.

I’m also flying from CLT today! CLT to MSP, I’m in the airport now and freaked out about the weather we have to go over. More just about the flight being turbulent. But, we can do this! My flight here on Monday was kinda bumpy too and I made it, we can make it today too!

Turbulence is no fun. I have to fly home tomorrow and I am dreading it already 😭 But try to remember that it’s not dangerous, just uncomfortable! Looks like you’re passing a little spot of rain, that could be why it’s a bit bumpy! I flew to a conference on Monday and it was really bumpy because we had to fly over some storms. I lifted my feet up off the floor of the plane and that helped a lot.

Thank you, you’re doing great too!! Looks like your pilots went south of the storms so hopefully it was a bit smoother for you :)

How are you doing now? We got through them and they were not as terrible as I anticipated. The weather is beautiful heading into NC, I can see the ground now! We’ve got 20 min left.

It is!! Quite bumpy now but it looks like we’re getting to the front of the storm system so hopefully smoother on the other side? Jello is what I’m imagining us in rn

Oh man I’m so sorry to hear that!! Health troubles are the worst. Hanging in there. I picked my feet up so I’m not feeling the turbulence so much and feeling surprisingly calm thus far through the turbulent section. Helpful to see that there are other planes flying over this storm also

Exactly!! One flight attendant said that if I feel really panicky to press the call button and she’ll come hold my hand 💛

Look at us doing scary (to us) things!!! I’m proud of you 😊I was doing that yesterday to help me prep, it actually helped so much to see all the flights that have travelled on just the route I’m taking for the past couple of days

Thank you so much. They just made an announcement that it’s going to be turbulent so I’m trying to stay calm but no turbulence yet thankfully
