I never used to be but the more I fly, the more afraid I get - like I'm scared of my luck running out or something. Strangely, I'm even more afraid now I'm pregnant, I don't like being in fast cars or on coaches while I'm pregnant either.

Yep! I was never afraid of flying when I was younger.. recently though, I don't do well during takeoff/landing.

Not afraid of flying. Although when I fly with my dad sometimes I get a little anxious when he makes a bumpy landing, that's not really his fault though, little planes are just like that sometimes.

Heights I'm a little afraid of. The CN tower in Toronto with the glass part in the floor, I didn't want to walk on that part I was nervous to step off the platform when we were zip lining, but I still did it. I think I have a normal amount of fear of heights, it's only of extreme heights that I have to step off of or things that appear that way (glass floor)

@mrs. bird: I'm exactly like you. I would never do the glass bottom floor. Because that is scary, but flying seems totally safe to me.

I am claustrophobic so being trapped in a plane flying for hours is just hell. I am also deathly afraid of vomit, so I always am super paranoid that my seat mates will throw up.

I flew to Minnesota last August (5 hr flight) and I had to sit back with the flight attendants hyperventilating and crying. It was so embarassing!

Not afraid, nor afraid of heights but I don't do well with takeoff and landing because my ears pop like nuts and really hurt.

My dad has a small (6-seater) plane and flying with him doesn't bother me at all. I've never actually been on a commercial airplane, but I think all the safety procedures would make me nervous (even though, of course, they are for my safety).

I don't like heights (hate bridges) but I'm fine with flying.

I hate flying but I do it a lot. I have two trips for work in the next couple months and then Hawaii in the winter. I don't know why I do this to myself because I hate it!
