  • Answer:

    Just don't die and you'll be fine. Eat an assload of benydryl. You won't know what's going on you'll be in sleepyland. Dramamine is an antianxiety medication. That'll halp. Chew gum to help pressurize your ears as the plane climbs. Possibly look out window so you know what's happening...just closing your eyes can make youu disoriented and sick, that won't help. Be curious and enjoy the view, see what you can see. You'll have fun and won't be scared just remember that.

Just entertain and distract yourself. Making it go away completely would take time, but that should at least help take the edge off it. Once you're past take-off, it feels like you're going really slow until landing, if it makes you feel better.

ok then, trust me, it is not as bad as you would expect, on my first flight, i thought it would be scary as sh*t and then it turned out to be fun as sh*t. so do not be mislead by your mind. the other thing is, its your first flight, make the best of it, because there is always more after that.

I get this too when I fly. I always burst in to tears on take off. Unfortunately you can't have anything out or music on on take off, but when you're in the air - what I do anyway is eat lots of mints and take a puzzle and put some calming music on. The take off is horrible but doesn't last long. I know it's scary but just concentrate on getting there. Breathe and hold on to the hand of the person next to you.

There's a medicin for your tummy. Also get some airplane ear plugs because your ears pop and it really hurts. I'm 13 and I'm from USA and I went to Australia and it was a 14 hour trip and I had to stop in two aces before I got there and the ear plugs were life savers and oh yeah it's called drominine or sumtin like that hope I helped
