  Xanax is a livesaver for flying.

  I also bring a Sudoku for takeoff and/or a notebook/coloring book (making me use the other part of my brain stops anxiety).

  I’m very much afraid of heights but I’m always so morbid about it,especially on plane rides. I ask for the window seat so if the plane is gonna crash, I can watch. Creepy right? I guess I’d rather know of my own impending doom. :p

  Hahahaha I love flying I actually jumped out of a plane once skydiving!! I think that this is a really helpful list though. When I flew to California I experienced the worst turbulence (played it off with my sister and pretended to use the barf bag to puke and it was really funny). If I can survive that I can survive anything hahaha.

  Just want to mention, you cannot bring any kind of liquid over 100ml on an international flight to the US or a domestic flight in Canada. What you should do instead is bring a large, empty plastic water bottle and fill it once you get through security. I like to use those collapsing bag-style one they sell at hiking stores, because they take up less space when empty

  Esme. ESME.

  WE HAVE THE SAME BEANIE BABY BEAR.

  I hope you find this news to be as unexpectedly awesome as I do.

  It’s just… a lil’ wacky to see a cartoon rendition of my stuffed animal companion-of-my-heart (together since second grade and going strong!) pop up in your illustration. LOVE IT

  I’ve never suffered from the fear of flying, like NEVER. But I think this is an awesome list! I know people who are really panicking, so next time they’re going somewhere, I’ll show this to them. And as always, I love Esme’s drawings <3

  This could not have come at a better time! I’m flying from Atlanta to London tomorrow all by myself and I’m so nervous. I’ve been flying ever since I was a baby and it never bothered me, but recently I’ve been getting really anxious on planes and just having really negative and scary thoughts.

  This is wonderful infographic, I’m suffer from fear of flying for many years, I have tried many courses & books to get over it, My advice is to improve the aviation knowledge by reading all about this subject-

  I have a love hate relationship with flying. I’ve always loved flying, I still do, there’s something soothing and exciting about it but because lots of stuff has happened lately I get really anxious even thinking about flying somewhere. Really needed this since I’ll be on holiday in a few weeks! Thanks Esme xxx
