I absolutely hate flying. I hate the whole process. Waiting in line. Going through security. The anxiety of being in a tin can in the air with no way out. I’m flying to Chicago last minute today and hate it a little more every time I fly 😂

Upgrade yourself to first class if it’s within $200 of coach ticket. Makes for such a better experience.. don’t go out to eat 6 times to justify it! That’s what I do lol

Also, fly out of Everett and not Sea-Tac!

If it's just me, yeah. Because I pack light. One small bag, no checking anything in. I bring my kobo and read while I wait to board. I bring snacks and buy a meal. I also fall asleep on planes without a problem 🤣.
Now if it's with my child, it isn't that I hate it. It's that I'm in constant entertainment mode, and they can't carry their carryon bag so my hands are quite full.

it was a last minute ticket which was already $800 😬😂. Paine was way more money!

Love it! I haven’t done it since I became a mom, but I grew up flying so it was never a horrible experience for me. I did my first solo trip in summer of 2018 & that was a little stressful, but nothing like seeing the sun rise from 30,000 feet 🤩 I don’t love waiting in line & going through security, though lol.

No.
Disliked it before having kids, hate it now I have kids 😂

used to love it when i was a lot young, like age 11-18 when i was first going on flights etc, then i suddenly developed a fear and it was through covid i got the fear of flying and wow i hate it now, ive flown a few times since covid each time has got worse however i have flown 3 times alone since to visit my grandma in france and i HATED it but i did it nether the less. The night before flying home from france i actually had such a bad panic attack i thought i was having a heart attack 🤣 I love being in the airport i love the airport process always have and i love planes i just hate being so high up with no way to escape and stuff it stresses me out, i take about 7 kalms before going on flights now. Havent been on one since having my son but even the thought of it makes me shiver.
Weird tho because when i was younger i used to count down days left of the holiday because i was so excited to go back in the airport and on a plane again! 🤣x

I’m heavily medicated with Xanax right now 😂😂😆😆

And you can’t make this shit up. We are boarded and on the plane. They just told us the pilots are missing 😒

oh hell no 😂🤦♀️🤦♀️

Mainly it just makes me incredibly anxious. I don’t like heights or planes lol

I don’t mind flying to places hate flying back lol

I hate open heights like hiking some high places or rollercoasters, but I’m okay when I’m closed in like on a plane lol.

I’m always so anxious and scared I’m going to get yelled at in the security line 😂 and that’s not including the actual flying part

I used to like it but now I'm too paranoid 😂 I did long distance relationship for a few years and then moved country so had to fly home multiple times a year for a few more years so I've had to fly A LOT lately. Now I feel like something has to go wrong soon right? And it makes me paranoid 😅

And now we’ve been deplaned 😒

I hate the process to get on the plane but as long as I have a window seat I love the whole ride

I use to love to fly but with all these plane incidents, I’m good on flying for a while lol. But I also worked at an airport for about nine years lol so I find the process pretty easy.

I’m like this also but I do hate being in a car high up. Idk why but I feel super unsafe lol. I’ve never even been on a roller coaster because I’m scared 😭

They found the pilots. Boarding again. I expect free wine for this 😂

I’m genuinely curious where the pilots were lol

I am also very curious how pilots just go missing 😂

I hate flying. All I can think about is 9/11 and Miracle on the Hudson.

As a pilot I was like, “yeah absolutely!”, but as a passenger, absolutely not 😑

I hate it. I just keep thinking ‘this isn’t right or natural, I’m in a tin can in the sky’ whenever I’m up there.

Ahh hope you have back up Xanax

i actually really love the entire process lol. i love the airport, tsa, all of it & i also love when there’s turbulence. my mom is an anxious flyer so flying with her is hell. same with my best friend.
safe travels!!!!!

We made it. CHICAGO I AM IN YOU 😂😂😂😂😂

glad you made it safely!

I hate flying with my kids. I didn’t mind flying before having them though. Glad you made it to your destination safe!

I do! When I fly by myself for work, it's just "me time." Especially the layovers. I put on my headphones and listen to music, go for a walk, have a snack, and read or play my switch at my gate. Then when I'm on the plane I can either read and enjoy the view or nap!

so glad you made it safely.

The pilots had an emergency dump they needed to take😅.
I want to take my son (solo) away next month and I swear I get an anxious stomach just thinking of the plane! I use to travel a lot as a kid but I was unaware then and with family.. now though I’m more aware, not with anyone else and just keep thinking of the what ifs! I’ll need some anxiety meds just waiting for the time to come as well as something to stop the runs!
I’m glad you safely made it! Phew

I enjoyed it before kids. I’ve always had a hard time, relaxing. And plane seemed to force me to just sit down, watch a movie or read a book! Now with a toddler, planes are the absolute worst thing ever.

precisely why I refuse to take my kids on a plane until maybe next year when they’re 6 & 4 lol
