In fact, air travel is the second safest mode of transportation, only after the elevator and escalator, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20250125194543\/http:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/id\/7549546\/ns\/travel-travel_tips\/t\/tips-fearful-flier\/#.VeSHyZeM9OY\">NBC News<\/a>. And, your chances of being involved in an accident are about 1 in 11 million. Just educating yourself about the facts can help you ease your concerns.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Don\u2019t hide it<\/strong> \u2013 Having a fear of flying is nothing to be embarrassed about. Tell the gate agent when you check in, the flight attendants when you board, and even the passengers seated next to you when you sit down. A gate agent may be able to seat you in the front of the cabin, and flight attendants and passengers can help you feel more comfortable and calm should you feel nervous or anxious.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Book an aisle seat<\/strong> \u2013 Many airlines allow you to pick your seat when you book your flight or when you check in online for an extra fee. If you have this option, consider booking an aisle seat located in the front of the cabin. Turbulence tends to be worse at the back of the plane. And, having the freedom to get up as you please may help you feel more relaxed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Stay distracted<\/strong> \u2013 Keep your mind occupied with a good book, movie, puzzle or game. Bring yourself enough activities to last the entire flight, even if it\u2019s work. Staying distracted will prevent yourself from thinking about your anxiety and morbid \u201cwhat if\u201d possibilities.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Avoid caffeine<\/strong> \u2013 While it\u2019s important that you stay hydrated, you want to avoid beverages that contain caffeine before and during your flight, such as coffee and soda. Caffeine can increase your anxiety.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>With these tips from Hussain al Nowais, you\u2019ll be able to ease your fear of flying and focus on enjoying the flight.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Do you have a fear of flying or feel anxious during air travel?
