Statisical fact. The most dangerous part of flying is the journey to and from the Airport.

Use a tried and trusted form of ground transportation, ie have a family member or other loved one drive you. Or use regulated mass transportation. Once onboard sit back relax and enjoy the beautiful views.

Answer 11

I am terrified of flying. I've flown many times yet I still cannot seem to shake the fear that hits. But something that seems to help me is taking my mind off everything. Normally i'll eat snacks or read, or listen to my favorite music. I also look around and the bunches of other people and think to myself "they aren't worried, why should i be?". Try talking to other people as well. Also, I realize that worrying isn't going to stop a plane from going down, so sit back, relax, and let the pilots do their jobs!
