Some of us tend to get nervous before boarding that metal bird whether it is for holidays or vacations. Here are 6 tips that will help you ease your anxiety.
Do your research
Sometimes it's better to face the truth and look up the facts ourselves. Researching facts about airplanes and safety may help you ease your nerves.
Remind yourself you're not the only one traveling
When you're at the airport, take a look around you and see how many people are getting on a plane. You're not the only one traveling and hundred percent likely not the only one nervous about it!
Dramamine is your best friend
Dramamine helps with not only feelings of anxiety but also with motion sickness. Make sure to take one before you board!
Talk about your anxiety
Whether it's your parents or best friend, be open and honest about how you feel. If they have no advice to give you, I'm sure just letting yourself be open helps ease your nerves.
Talk to a flight attendant
Flight attendants are not just trained to give directions on how to use an oxygen mask or buckle a seatbelt, but they're also there to comfort you!
Enjoy the flight!
Sometimes it's best to look at the positive side of things. Tell yourself that wherever you're going, people have gone and an awesome journey awaits you!
