This is not a criticism of Americans...

[Gambino]

ohhh but the nubile euroteens wearing white, transparent, airy linen pants and no bra (so D&G fashion-aware they are) are so worth it...

you'd dig it the most, I'm telling ya

bro i'm sure i would love it
but...n.america has a lot to offer, the same amount of geo diversity found in euroland.
so i'll explore n.america a bit more before mounting an overseas expedition...my parents had to wait untill they were retired before they were able to make the trip

haha! lmao! I haveta spread some k before I can give you anymore so IOU. lol.

They just want me to face my fear. which I have done many times. while having panic attacks sitting in coach making babies cry. I cant enjoy a vacation if thats the way I have to get there and back.

I feel better that i'm not the only one. I am kinda ashamed of it though!

DH is kinda a dick sometimes.lol. Aren't they all though?

Nah, don't feel ashamed! It's very common. The majority of ppl I know hate to fly, they do it, but they get ill before they have to fly.
A good way to get over the fear...the only way, do it and do it again and again. This will be my next feat...to get over my fear!

I say crap! It is all crap! The best way to fly is prescription drugs. They won't let us fly with my favorite drugs but you can get some really good shit to make the travel easier. Something to knock your anxiety down so you get on the plane as a zombie then something to keep you knocked out the entire flight and next thing you know you are there and ready to party.

How do you go about getting these perscription drugs? what do you tell the doctor? I'm going on vacation and I cant breathe on the plane? lol


I dont want to be diagnosed with anxiety or anything. Does that not make life insurance more expensive when you renew?

If I could come to terms with this I could travel more.

I'm not sure about your doctor but mine I pay money to so I better get what I want or I'll just get a new doctor. I'm pretty sure that is how it works these days. As for what to tell him? I would say "hey doc I have to take a flight and I'm scared shitless of flying, give me something that will make it so they will basically have to carry me on the plane please!" "Oh ya and do you have anything like ambien or something that I then could take later to help me sleep?"

As for life insurance, the way my policies are written I am guaranteed rates, they can't run my rates up on me in the future based on my mental state(lord know it won't be good) so no worries there.

I have only flown twice and the 1st time I actually cried. But was well worth it since I had an opportunity to go to Jamiaca.
The other time was to Tampa Bay, Florida and that one was just awful......At one point I thought there was smoke coming from one of the wings, but now I think it was just the clouds or something (it had just rained) and then he made a hard right and I thought we were going down!!! Trip was awful.....it freaking rained the whole damn time!!! Beaches where empty and no tan lines to bring home

Honestly, I would rather do it w/out meds. I hate having a "crutch" for anything b/c I want to conquer the fear with my own will and not by the will of meds........

this sounds like a speech a preggie woman gives when she says "Oh I want natural child birth, no eppi" Then when she gets there and the baby is about killing her and she yells' GIVE ME DRUGS"...haha!

I would try it w/out meds but would bring meds in case.

Some things I've noticed travelling in the the UK on and off for the last couple of years.

-People here don't travel around/explore their own coutries much
-People here travel to other places quite frequently but most just return to the same places
-There aren't very many Americans away from the more touristy areas
-No one here has any concept of how big the US is.

I enjoy travelling and am fortuneate enough to have work foot the bill for most of my adventures abroad.

Cheers,
Scotsman

I guess now we know why they don't travel more. ALL AMERICANS ARE AFRAID OF FLYING!
