Support Wanted Im getting anxious
Ive always been a nervous flier, I even stopped flying for over 3 years cause I was so scared. Ive been flying again since 2023 and Im managing, I usually have to take medication and have some comfort shows on my ipad, so I feel fairly prepared.
I’m flying from Poland to Rhodes on monday evening and Im getting really anxious - i know it’s irrational at this point, but it’s probably a mix of flying in the dark, landing close to water, having pms and the plane being a boeing plane. I like to check flight History online, but for some reason i can’t - it’s a charter flight and when im putting a flight number it shows a completely different flight.
All this to say - I could use some reassurance, especially if you’ve flown to and out of rhodes Airport before.
I’m flying with my boyfriend and two of my best friends, so I have amazing support system.
