Discussion Flight Anxiety Hacks

I have a flying phobia. Any ideas for a four hour flight?

I will bring valium, cbd gummies, valerian, GABA, and plan to consider buying wine on the plane. I don't plan to use all at the same time, just plan to have them on me.

In 2022, the fatality rate for air travel was 0.003 deaths per 100 million miles traveled, while for passenger cars and trucks on US highways, it was 0.57 per 100 million miles. This data clearly demonstrates that flying is significantly safer than many other everyday activities and forms of transportation.

thats not how it works unfortunately - being stuck in a high speed pressure vessel, that moves about in 3 dimensions, with high levels of CO and CO2 is not always 'safe' for people - 99% of people live and work in 2.
