Fear of Flying – How To Get Over It

Scared of flying? Don’t worry you are not alone. Around 25% of people are scared of flying, but why?

Having a fear of flying can be caused by a number of factors. Many people say they’re scared because they suffer from claustrophobia or have a fear of heights or falling. Others say because of terrorist hijacking or the plane malfunctioning and crashing.
Even though these fears can be irrational, for some people their anxiety is so severe they can’t even go on a family holiday by air!

Here at Air Experiences, we love flying and would love to help people feel more comfortable and confident around planes and the thought of flying. Our goal is to help those conquer their fear of flying or at least reduce their anxiety and fly with confidence.

Scared of flying course

As a fearful flyer it might be a good idea to enrolling on a ‘Scared of Flying’ Course, however they can cost hundreds of pounds!
Alternatively, for less that £100, you can take a flight with one of our experienced instructors.
