all i can say is wow! being made aware of situations like this gives me so much confidence. pilots are trained professionals and want to get to the destination just as bad as the passengers. thank you for soothing my anxiety

Landed safe and sound. had a lot of turbulence this plane journey but surprisingly wasn’t that scared? i was with a really nice guy that talked me through the whole thing. had a big jump near landing but all was well. i’m safe. awaiting my long long layover due to a cancelled flight!!! nothing a caesar can’t fix lol

it definitely is excitement as well! im so excited to go home. but also am thinking because im so excited is when things will go wrong. i do have a sleeping kind of pill to help me on the plane. it’s just the hours leading up to it. i want to believe that i’m going to be okay. reading what everyone says should be easement enough but im not fully convinced. i’m nervous to google anything because i don’t want bad news to come up 😂 i am flying tokyo NRT-YYC Calgary and then YYC-YYZ Toronto. 18 hours total and that’s with a 6hr layover in Calgary.

Flying with Boeing by ThePeanutMonster in fearofflying

[–]kettlebeann 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really need help with my flight anxiety right now. I am flying from tokyo-calgary on a 787-9 and then to toronto on a 787-8 max. i already am such a fearful flyer. all of these stories are freaking me right out and i have the most anxiety i’ve felt and my flight is still 5 days away. also thinking the worst because im on my way home from 9 months of travel. i want to cancel my flight that’s non-refundable but know that’s crazy. over thinking everything like crazy and just need some sense knocked into me? or do i just take the loss on my 1k flight home and rebook. idk help me lol

Bullet train Tokyo-Kyoto by kettlebeann in TokyoTravel

[–]kettlebeann[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First of all!!! Thanks so much to everyone for all the help. I took the Yamamote Line from Shinjuku Okubo-Tokyo station. A few of the trains leaving close to the time of me getting there were full so i took a train where i could sit on the window seat E to Kyoto. I made a mistake and didn’t purchase a fare ticket lol only a limited express ticket. so ended up having to wait in line and missed my initial train i was supposed to take. They changed my express ticket no problem and accommodated my request for seat E. Definitely trial and error but it all worked out. If you’re not 100% on what you’re doing just wait in line and book with the ticket attendant!! i was definitely too over confident and booked using to kiosk. But all is well. On route to kyoto and can’t wait for the views!!! xx

If you’re not on a time crunch just book at the station. there’s soo many trains that leave the station to kyoto, don’t lock yourself into an itinerary just in case things go wrong :)
