I, too, hate flying because I feel so out of control with my life hanging in the balance. I didn't used to mind it but for some reason the past four years it has gotten worse - especially during take off. Every time around take off I say to myself this is the last time I am getting on a plane but by the time I reach a cruising altitude I usually calm down to normal (until there is heavy turbulence). Every time I land I feel so thankful and surprised to be alive!

Luckily, most of my flights to DR have been pretty smooth.
