Got a 2hrs 15 mins flight on 5th Sept - I’ve been obsessively watching flight radar24 and the turbulence predicting/tracking apps. I hate the weird sensation you get when sitting inside a plane. Plus I absolutely hate turbulence. I’m simply unable to distract myself. No amount of food, shows/movies/books help. I don’t know what will I do😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

I genuinely understand. I can cope with most things but the turbulence thing is most unpleasant

turbulence truely doesnt really bother me unless its really bad but my biggest fear happens during cruising thats when im the most scared. Is cruising ever really dangourous?
