I recently traveled from Trivandrum to New Delhi by flight. Being a nervous person, I was somewhat scared when the flight bounced in mid air due to some turbulence. Do you get nervous by air travel? share your experience.

:S :S :S

I have not recently traveled by air. But many years ago, i traveled by air in jammu & Kashmir and Assam. I never felt nervous. I just felt like travel in a boat.
Yes I get nervous every time I travel by air. I never feel nervous while taking off or in the mid air however trouble the weather makes but when it starts to come down, I feel nervous and at the point of touchdown I hold the front seat unless wheels of plane not firmly on ground and plane in smooth running position. Once it is running steady on the runway I am back to my normal self. That is the reason I can't sit in a joint wheal as well.
Because its your first experience, even a common happening in air travel will create a panic in you. I’m sure, with another trip, you will get acclimatized and nothing looks strange. Nothing panics you. I have heard such complaints from the first timers in air travelling.I didn’t panic during my first flight.
I am not regular but when I travelled first time then i got nervous.

Any first time experience is bound to cause anxiety or nervousness. Its but natural.
I traveled by air first time as a baby from Pakistan. This obviously is not something that one may remember even faintly. My air travel at age of twenty was exciting and this gave me a thrill. Thereafter, this is normal. However, I have not traveled by air for many decades. Even train journeys are very few.
I can remember my first air travel, from Birganj to Kathmandu as a ten year old with my parents. It was a journey of 30 minutes and almost all time went in climbing and coming down. I did not feel any fear that time but all my adult age journeys always made me frightened especially at time of touching down.

I had very less air travels. My first flight was from Kolkata to Delhi on an official job. One of my colleagues was also there with me. No nervousness whatsoever.

In fact I am not afraid of air travel but I have a psychological problem when come toward ground from above with great speed. I fee as if I will crash with ground.

I understand. Its not fear. A momentary anxiety. You know nothing will happen. Still that anxiety will be there. Its not fear foe sure.
Still, I have never traveled by air. I have no experience of that.
But, it is really great experience for me in future.

No, it really is frightful experience. I know anything can happen when the touchdown happens and undercarriage comes into contact with ground. Ask an expert, most mishaps take place at this particular moment.
When i was in 5th Standard in year 2000, I travelled to Nigeria. At my first flight i was very scared. But later i enjoyed it very much. I still remember that i ran between the passage.

Nervousness is but natural because you were very young. But later you got used to it and enjoyed too. Its a question of time. Some take little time. Some more time.

Some take life time but never come out of their nervousness. It's deep rooted.

There will be always exceptions. Yes, some cannot get rid of the fear completely.
Yes it's true most of us get nervous while traveling in the air, i personally afraid too. I don't know why but it happened with me everyone time.
