This is for you doctors. Start by checking the vestibular apparatus. Maybe you should see a psychotherapist.

Rave! I am also afraid of flying and afraid of heights, but this is not a reason to sit in Crimea all my life.
For reference. Four times a year I fly somewhere, being afraid. Hunting is worse than captivity.

---Rave! I'm also afraid of flying...
Apparently, you are not so afraid of flying.
All this is very serious.
If the fear of flying is so great, then why force yourself?
You can go to a psychotherapist if the fear is still not so big.
In general, there are not so many people with phobias.
More often than not, there is fear that we can overcome.

I am also afraid of flying, but I fly 2-3 times a year there and back. I overcome my fear.
If you can cope with your fear on your own, well, if not, consult a doctor.

In fact, more people die in air crashes than on land (in road accidents), on water, etc. This is if you are afraid of getting into a disaster. Well, to overcome the fear of heights now, in my opinion, is easier than before: watching a video, listening to your favorite music, an interesting book. At the time of takeoff and landing - caramel on the cheek. And in no case should children show their fear, and they will really like flying, I'm sure!

Few people are not afraid of flying at all.
It’s scary only during takeoff and landing, and when the plane gains altitude and dives behind the clouds, it’s not scary at all.
Most importantly, do not try to overcome fear with alcohol, as our soviet cattle do, since alcohol at altitude acts unpredictably due to pressure differences.

The doctors won't help. It will help the inner mood that everything WILL BE GOOD. And prayer.

Read the statistics. much LESS people die in plane crashes than even when riding bicycles! the daily risk of being hit by a car is much more real than flying. my husband was also terribly afraid of flying, read the statistics - it was allowed, you don’t have to force yourself onto the plane. The feeling of discomfort, of course, is present, but there is no panic. Stay positive and everything will be fine!!!

The percentage of deaths is higher. Those. in car accidents there is a chance to survive, in a plane crash - no.
I lost my fear of flying once and for all when my best friend asked, "What are you afraid of? Death in a crashed plane? Is it better to die at home, rotting from cancer or other diseases?" And somehow I really got into it. We'll all die, so it's better to crash on a plane :)

Nothing has helped me, and nothing helps. Stupidly endure, although with each flight, a little easier. You can reassure yourself that you have a well-developed sense of self-preservation and statistics, as it were, in favor of flying)))
I read magazines - it calms a little more than the persuasion of those who are not afraid to fly.
If the fear is very strong and if there is a chronicle to your heart, my personal opinion is, do not fly! You need to tune in before the flight, not during.
And yet, there are documentaries "Through the Eyes of a Pilot" (pilotseye.tv).
Very cool, interesting and still help to overcome fear. And very beautiful views!
One of the films is dedicated to courses to overcome this fear, by the way.

Reading the statistics of disasters for the very impressionable does not lead to anything good)))
And percentages don't really matter.
Before flying to Thessaloniki, kind people advised me to study the statistics. Oh well. I studied that case of 97g from and to - and nothing life-affirming ;-)

The psychotherapist will not help, just take the money. Your false fear is in your head. Getting on the plane, try to relax and enjoy the flight, in anticipation of the new emotions of the upcoming vacation. I love airplanes, airports and everything connected with it. Even a cup of coffee to drink in an airport cafe is a pleasure for me. I fly often. Although I used to be afraid too.

Maybe my advice will help you, I will be very glad. Once my employee shared that she wants to relax abroad with a guy, but she is afraid of flights. I advised her that she should communicate with him on any topic on the plane and not pay attention to the fact that she was flying. And when she returned, she immediately said that this was how she behaved, and she was not afraid to fly back. And I advise you such tactics, especially with children, you will have something to do. All attention to them, talk, read, draw and you will not notice how you will already be there. Good luck with your flights and don't be afraid!

thank you very much for sharing your experience
especially hatinka, I didn’t even know that there are such films, I’ll definitely look
the most interesting thing is that I already flew on airplanes as a child and more than once, once even on a cornfield I flew from the village to Ryazan, it was the case,
I still remember this feeling when a plane takes off or gets into an air pocket, but a lot of time has passed, everything is forgotten
so it's like the first time

To all participants of the discussion! Sorry, I made a mistake - I missed the "NOT" before the word "MORE". I wanted to say that "NO MORE people die in air crashes than on the ground (in an accident), on the water, etc." So my opinion has changed dramatically because of this typo (((Of course, dear Lakkki, I just wanted to cheer you up)

I’ll put in my 5. I didn’t fly for 20 years. The last flight to An was remembered for the fact that the plane tilted sharply forward, as happens during heavy braking in a car. People tried to panic, but the stewardess explained that everything was fine. Indeed, they landed in the right place safe and sound. But the fear remained.
There is a psychological trick. Do what you fear.
Last year, the husband insisted on flying to Serbia via Frankfurt am Main. Okay, I decided, if you're afraid to fly, then you need to do it. On takeoff in Moscow, we began to examine the Lufthansa booklet. A Serb met us at the Frankfurt airport. It turned out that his place is next to us. It was he who "informed" us during takeoff and landing. There was some excitement on the way back, but it wasn't that depressing.
Especially when landing, it can lay ears. We took candies. I will describe one more manipulation. I'll try to be clear. While inhaling, pinch your nose and direct the air towards your ears.
