Why are you nervous? I love direct flights, I don't have to worry about long ass layover or running like a madwoman from one gate to the next to make the
connecting flight.
Is this your first time flying? Don't be nervous, you'll be fine. Stay up the night before and just konk out on the plane. That'll be a good 6 hours that you'll be out. |

You're pretty much flying of the North Pole, you know.

i hate hate planes. i'm so scared... *god forbid* that it crashes or something. and i especially dont like that i have no control of the plane, it's
like in someone elses hands. not to mention the speed at which you are traveling.
that's also why i hate even being a passenger in a car. i NEED control. my dr. prescribed me xanax so hopefully that'll knock me out for that flight but still.......nervous. |

Is xanax anxiety medicine? if not, you should get some. You don't notice the speed that you're flying at, it actually seems quite slow, or maybe
that's what you don't like about the speed?
Of the entire flight. the takeoff and landing are a bitch cuz of the elevation increase -- it makes your ears pop. Once you're in the air, you're good to go. Get some anxiety medicine, stay up all night, listen to some relaxing music before you board, lots of deep breaths and you'll be fine. |

The bad news is that you would likely wake up right before hitting the water/mountain. Even worse news, you'd likely drown if you landed a live in the water due to all your limbs being broken. |
