About fear of flying

The fear of flying affects more than 40% of the population. Its effects range from mild anxiety before flying to a state of terror which prevents the sufferer from boarding an aircraft or even leaving it once having got on. Those affected by the fear of flying suffer varying degrees of physical and mental discomfort ranging from a feeling of sickness and general discomfort to the onset of a panic attack. Unlike many fears, for example a fear of heights, someone suffering from a fear of flying does not need to be airborne or in an aircraft to bring on the symptoms, the feelings of fear can be induced simply by thinking about flying. By contrast, someone with a fear of heights is generally unaffected by it until they are in the circumstances which affect them, in other words they would need to be in a high building before the fear would affect them.

Most sufferers regard the fear of flying as a weakness because it has a number of domestic, social and business implications. Furthermore, it seems to generate attitudes of ridicule from those who do not suffer from it. There is a common misconception that quoting safety statistics (even though flying is the most regulated and safety focused industry in the world) and probabilities will bring about an immediate cure. This and a hearty slap on the back and a "you'll be all right on the night" attitude seems to be the only help available to fearful flyers. The fear of flying is not confined to any particular group of people with regard to age and gender social status or intelligence. However the good news about it is that most people can overcome the fear of flying by choosing from a range of help that includes, our products, community, therapy and more, .

On this web site we believe that the first step should be to clear away all the misconceptions, myths, misunderstandings, rumour and old wives tales that swamp aviation, and replace them with facts, new approaches and insights to help you fly without fear. It’s a good idea to resolve that you will never again read anything about air travel and its problems and dangers that is commonly found in magazines and newspapers. This does you no good and helps to reinforce your fears about flying. You need to resolve never to watch 'disaster', 'black box' and 'inside' stories about passenger who have a fear of flying, air travel incidents and air safety ever again. If you believe nothing else believe this, they will not help you...and remember, "flying is safer than you think" and you will overcome your fear of flying.

However you feel right now, be confident that you will be able to overcome your fear of flying because most people do. It's a fact that very, very few people develop and use a proper strategy to overcome their fear of flying. They hope for a miracle cure or think that one day something will change for them, or they keep delaying doing anything in the belief that the fear will go away on its own. Trying to overcome your fear like this is likely to result in failure, or at best, take very much longer than it needs to. To overcome your fear of flying you have to recognise that it will take you time and effort but it will be worth it.
