I had a really bad flying experience and that is where it started. My thoughts circled around the upcoming flight and it made the anxiety worse. It also generated a lot of questions. I tried to google fear of flying and that is how I found Spoerg Piloten (edit Danish version of Ask A Pilot). I quickly got an answer to my questions and it helped me a lot to do something actively instead of letting the fear grow. I invested in the package with relaxation exercises and mental training. I did not really expect the package and 14 days to be enough to regain control over my fear of flying but it was. I was actually able to look forward to the flight and I avoided the sleepless nights leading up to my vacation.

Sorry for the late review but daily life and school took over again. My trip home went really well. I am still not a big fan when it starts to bounce but I now no longer hold the armrest convulsively or think that the plane is about to crash ??
I can also feel how my curiosity and joy of travelling has returned – it was the same feeling I had, when I was 19 and I had my 6 months around the world trip and having that feeling once again is something I am really happy for. In fact I am so happy that my boyfriend and I are talking about doing an around the world trip together ?
So once again thank you so much for your help. I hope that I one day can contribute and give something back as saying thank you seems not enough ?

It shared my Turkey story with everyone and here is just a quick update from me in March 2020. I have just been flying with Norwegian a short trip Copenhagen to Aalborg. I travelled alone and it went really well. We did encounter some turbulence both ways but I was able to focus on positive things like all the time I was saving flying, how beautiful the light over Funen was and that I had trust in the staff who were professional. Lots of hugs Michelle

A few weeks before I was due to go on summer vacation this year, the anxiety about the flight started knocking. I have flown many times in my life – including alone. I have never had a fear of flying as such. It has arisen in the last few years. In an attempt to get rid of the anxiety 3-4 weeks before departure, which also affected my sleep and appetite, I bought Ask A Pilot’s “from flying anxiety to flight joy package”. A really good investment if you ask me. However, I had one question that I didn’t quite feel I had answered, so I wrote an email. Shortly after, I get an email back from “Søren” who offers to call me. The next day, Søren calls and we talk for half an hour – for free. Søren answers my questions and gives me other useful facts. The day after the conversation, Søren follows up with me and offers me to contact the airline I will be travelling with. During and after my holiday, Søren is also aware of me and continues to offer his help. Thanks to Søren, I get a cockpit visit where I meet the captain and the first officer (on both flights). This helped me feel more secure about the journey. I do not regret contacting Ask A Pilot and investing a little money in myself. The course has been a gift for me and I have felt seen and heard
