Welcome to a Flight Attendant's Guide to Overcoming Your Fear of Flying
Hello, and welcome to my first ever Squidoo Lens. I am a experienced Flight Attendant and have become increasingly frustrated at the lack of quality information available to those of you have have a crippling fear of flying.
Therefore, I am on a mission to help as many sufferers as is humanly possible. I am not a therapist, but I know about the aviation industry! Trust me, your first step to overcoming your fear is to completely disregard any media stories. Every one I read is full of pure fabrication. It's become obvious to me that reporters do not research AT ALL before publishing these reports to the world!

So, Who Am I?
Why should you listen to me?!?!
As mentioned above, I am a Flight Attendant on a mission. Almost daily I meet with - and give advice to - fearful flyers at work. After many conversations with these passengers I came to realise that there are millions of people that need help and advice.
I searched the Internet to see what help was available hoping to find a site that I could tell my nervous passengers to have a look at, but I was left disappointed. So, I started my own!
Bearing in mind that I had NO idea how to build an Internet site, I think I've done ok - although it's hard work keeping it up to date. With Flying Fear still only 8 months old I am already proud of what I have achieved. Being a perfectionist though, it's a always being improved upon...

Enough About ME...
Let's Talk About You
So, now you know who I am and why I'm here (hopefully!). Now it's time to talk about you.
I can only presume you're here as you have a fear of flying to some extent. You are certainly not alone, and should not feel embarrassed. Recent statistics show that approximately a third of the population suffer from a fear of flying to some degree - and many more experience at least mild anxiety.
Before you can overcome your fear of flying, you need to admit to yourself (and us) that you actually have a fear of flying!
