At one point I would rather (and actually did) travel for five days over land rather than taking a plane. That is how petrifying I found flying!

Finally I found the solutions and now have no problems taking a flight anytime.

Cut through the nonsense with the 2020 updated version of the best-selling solution to quickly and easily ending the fear of flying forever!

Overcoming the fear of flying does not have to be a long and difficult process. Research has lead to information and techniques that can help anyone recover from the fear of flying fast and with ease. The ability to take a flight is a wonderful thing, don’t let the fear hold you back any longer!

Good tips but narrator goes too fast

These tips were helpful for flight anxiety and I am glad I listened, but the narrator goes WAY too fast. I tried to slow it down but it just sounded robotic and weird so I dealt with her speed.

Helped me

Had a fear of flying for pretty much my entire life. Got this audiobook a few days before a trip I could not miss and I found it incredibly useful. I wouldn't say I was totally fearless but I will say I was a lot better than I used to be and have already booked a few more trips for later in the year.

Recovered

I liked the narrators voice and style, really helped get the point across and the writing was unique with some viewpoints and ideas I had never ever heard before. Very good book actually (sorry if I sound surprised lol)

No longer afraid

I have tried many books and methods but thankful to have found this book (after a recommendation from a support group) as it has reduced my anxiety by about 75% and finally made air travel possible without panic attacks!

Very helpful

I actually downloaded this right before turning my phone on airplane mode and we took off. I have severe panic attacks every time I fly and I had 7 flights coming up in a two-week period. I also downloaded some guided meditation for PTSD, which were helpful, but this one was by far the best for me. I am a cerebral person. Knowledge is power. I like how much of the book is a simple overview of the pathophysiology of fear responses as well as the mechanics of an airplane and what makes all the noises (very simplistic, but anything more would not have been helpful)! As she was explaining what fear is, I was actually intensely feeling the emotions of fear and I could say, "Oh, that's because my body is responding to . . . " It was very, very helpful in the moment. Usually, when I fly I am keenly aware of every little noise, bump, and tilt of the plane, but by the end of my 7th flight, I didn't even know we were landing!

not impressed

Aside from her explaining all the safety features and things not to fear on an airplane I feel that little was done to address conquering fear of flying

Not that helpful

If you have done previous reading on fear of flying, this book will likely just repeat most things you already know. It is relatively concise. I didn't find it very helpful.
