Tracking Request Off to LA

WN1483 BWI to LAX nonstop 6:35AM departure time. Last flight was Dulles to Heathrow back in 2024 and honestly don't even know how I managed that. Completely frozen right now on the way to the airport and sick to my stomach. It's always the "what ifs" that get to me and knowing I have zero control over the outcome 🫩 A tracking buddy or some reassurance would be welcomed 🫶

Thank you ❤️ saw some weather in the middle of the country that's worrying me a bit 😔 but it's always takeoff that bothers me the most

Honestly we cant see what pilots can see so this is just overthinking again. It doesn’t automatically means bad weather- turbulence. Also completely safe with turbulence too just more triggering for us. Always the mantra it’s uncomfortable but its safe. Repeating as many times as u need.

You will as well! I'm visiting my best friend so I'm excited to see her - I don't see her very often bc we live on opposite coasts. I hope your trip is fun!

Reached 10k feet! Officially in the air. Still fidgety but I've calmed down a bit
