have you ever..., rode on a plane? Options

[blonde@<3]

i'm goin somewhere this summer that inquires me to ride on a plane and i've never stepped foot on a plane. so i'm really lookin forward to the trip but i'm a little nervous bout the plane ride. can anyone tell me what its like or is it scary?

[smrkangl]

requires*

it's not all that freaky...it's just like..umm sitting down lol. it was fun actually, i enjoyed it! you should try to enjoy the ride :)

[weirdness]

it's not scary at all, it's almost like it's not moving!

[xbr0kensmil3]

i love going on planes. the last time i went on one was when i was 10. The first time i went on it i felt scared too but then i couldn't tell that we we're flying. it was awesome!

[FoOd]

The only part I don't like is the popping of my ears.

[Flaunted]

its not bad, i just hate it when your ears hurts sometimes.

[Teesa]

me + planes =
haha, I love riding on planes! Don't worry, you have nothing to be nervous about, and what you're feeling is natural. What I don't like about plane rides would be sometimes the turbulence and definitely when my ears pop..ugh.

[myheartxbandages]

Air ports make me manically depressed.
but, planes are fine. i go on planes constantly.
almost eveyother month.
because my dad lives in vermont. and random people die in my family all the time. and were all spread out throughout the freaking world. but cha. no worries.

[Jayembe]

Nah not scary at all. But for me my legs get a little cramped but hey i sit there for 9 hours. You should chew gum wen flying up it helps your ears since they pop wen u go up. If its a long plane ride bring enterainment. If you hit turbulence no need to worry it most likely will pass. The worst part is waiting to take off. Landing is the best cus u wanna get off the plane because it is BORING!!!

[*jooleeah*]

I love planes. They're awesome. Trust me, it's not scary. I advise you to bring some sort of music device ( ipod, cd player, etc) to calm you down just incase you get a bit nervous =] Though there's nothing to be nervous about! It just sucks when your ears pop. Earplugs help a little! So bring those just incase :D

[*wind&fire*]

im not scared.. then again ive been flying since i was a baby... uhh take off and landing may be scary.. and walking whilst in flight may feel funny

[angelrevelation]

i LOVE plane rides! you get all high and can look out the window at the clouds or the little cars and houses... it's not scary at all. for me anyway. even the food is cool... even if it doesnt taste the best, the packaging is fun to open. and some planes have tvs and everything. but bring hand lotion because it gets really dry inside. and feel free to ask the flight attendants for refreshments. i love the little cups lol

[DanielleMaria05]

I've never been on a plane, but I so want to. Well, good luck. Planes are safe, so, dont' be worried.

[alliegrl_x]

dont be scared, you cant really tell yr up there in some enormous flying thing besides the tilt when it takes off. and the ear popping thing sucks. it hurts like hell and sometimes it doesnt go away for a long period of time. how long is yr flight? once i took one to china...and it was 11 hours and i got a total of 45 min of sleep. they ran out of pillows, and their blanket things smelld like scratchy dried plastic. worst ride ever. but other than that its fun =)

[jennyjenny]

um, you go into the terminal, go through this hallway thing and get on the plane. it's no big deal.

[danishcookiez]

it's not scary at all. actually, i usually fall asleep as soon as i sit down, haha

[miss barnes]

planes are no big deal. i just sleep the whole time

[Flaunted]

oh, also what idon't like about planes is the before part with the waiting and security checks. they make you take off flipflops!!

[MetalChick77]

It's not scary at all. I looove plane rides. I go on one almost every summer.

[*iNyCxShoRT*]

no it`s not scary at all, it`s kinda like a bus lols your ears might pop though so be careful for that and it`s really kewl even if you`re afraid of hieght looking out a window of the plane is so pretty.

[parallel]

I think it's fun. At first it kinda freaked me out. But I think taking off is the best part. It's like. A rollercoaster. Kinda.

[lovescream]

well, it's kinda cool, cause I'm a traveling type of person..
You might wanna eat gum during the lift off and the landing or else your ear will pop.. or something along those lines. xD

Mhm. And it may feel weird at first.. it's kinda cool.. and your butt might sweat if you sit too long. (=

[angel-roh]

My first time.


Hm, I thought it was fun. But it gived me the headaches when it was lifting off. It felt like I was at the amusement park riding those scary rides. I hate rollercoasters and it kinda felt like that. It's not like it's a crazy plane that will go in circles and spin around. It just felt like rollercoasters to me because I rode on it once and it gived me hecka headaches.

[loljuliana]

yeah; you cant feel it. and it's a great view from the sky =)

[pAtRiCk_sTar]

Hmm..it's not that freaky to me. But then again, I've ridden a lot of planes. If you get scared, you can avoid the window seat and try to take a nap or read. Still, it's really cool too look down at the clouds

[BeyondElite]

It is not very scary at all. Believe me, i've rode on a plane many times before. You just sit there, relax, and enjoy the view outside the window, or on the television screen. The only thing I hate about riding a plane is that my ears hurt, because of the pressure. You can get it if you have colds, especially with a runny nose. Anyway, during your flight, there are "inflight entertainment programs, that takes you to a higher level of inflight entertainment programming guaranteed to heighten your viewing, listening and reading pleasure in the air." Also, meals and beverages are wide range of inflight meals that they offer whether you're in First Class, Business Class or Economic Class. Finally, they will ensure that you may be comfortable and safe to help you travel the healthy and relaxing way. I hope you may have a safe, and enjoyable flight! Good luck!

[glit_gal]

yeah lot's of times. don't worry, it really is quite boring once you acutally get on it.

[hollesther]

Ive NEVER ridden a plane I want to so badly though

[freeflow]

well i dotn really remember i went on a plane once to florida years ago i dont think it was scary at all

[dELiRiOUS8o8]

planes scary naws... just chew some gum when your bout to take off so your ears dont pop. :]

[yukichan]

ya i have..if i want to go to some place else i have to..lol..just relax..i remember my first time riding the airplane..i was screaming my head off...lol..just relax and if ur scared close ur eyes...

[misoshiru]

its kind of like riding a car. you get on the plane, sit down, fly, land, and get off. i love going on planes.

[gelionie]

It's not scary.

Well it depends on how long your plane journey is, if it's a bit long (more than 4 hours), your legs might ache a bit because you have to sit still for such a long time.

[toodlepops.]

The only part I don't like is the popping of my ears. 

Agreed, same here.
But yeah, riding on planes are fun although you don't feel like moving but w/e

[jaeman]

This is going to be a real interesting and fun experience for you because it's your first time. I would advise you to listen to the safety briefing before the take off because it is very important. I mean, don't you want to know where your personal floatation device (pfd) is or how to the oxygen masks work.

[vampireduster]

yes i have been riding planes since i can remember. The only thing that really scares me is the take off other than that im fine

[Spirited Away]

I hate flying, I hate flying, I hate flying. I really do.

I'll be flying in August and as much as I want to end up in New York, I really hate the proccess of getting me there.

[EmmalieV]

Its pretty scary at first but after it goes up in the air , like a half an hour in , you will be calm.

[jue]

it sure is a great view and its pretty cool; but i cant remember much cos last time i rode a plane was when i was REAL little

Depends on the airline, comrade. It' not like every airline is Singapore Airlines or Emirates. In the world of the US commercial airline industry...meals (which used to dreaded by the droves) and in flight entertainment in domestic flights is litterally a luxury considering that the majors are driving down costs to survive. There's a few jewels out there though with the likes of jetBlue, Frontier, America West, etc.

Anyhow, I live to fly. Though this may be your first flight, you're at least old enough to remember it. Mine was when I was 2. I've flown around 85,000 miles since 1988 on 7 different airlines to 21 different airports and there have been no scary incidences on any of my flights that would've rattled me back to the ground. The experience is exhilirating especially when the aircraft takes off and lands.

As with my fellow enthusiast, azn_pnoy_boi, and everyone else, hope you have a safe yet memorable trip. If you need any info and tips on air travel, please PM me.

[dancingkait]

the only thing i don't like about planes is the ear popping. i get it really bad. i was deaf for like 3 days in disneyland because it hurt soo much to pop them. but other than that, the actual flying part is kinda fun

[whomps]

Yes.. I've ridden on a plane many, many times. To Los Angeles, Canada, Beijing, Hong Kong, and back yadayadyada.

[SMUSHiENESS]

planes are fine. on my first time i was terrifed, i was putting out negative comments such as what if the plane crashes? i swear, i think my parents wanted to tape up my mouth. I listened to my cd player the whole time, i didnt feel my ears pop. The landing is a bit bumpy though.

[Eryi]

One word, weird. Yes the feeling is weird. But one suggestion. Chew gum on the plane.

[ITSBONKERS]

i go on a plane every summer.
it sucks if your near a baby or annoying people.

[shortiiex]

um...i haven't rode on a plane a long time....i remeber my ear getting numb...like getting water in your ear

[Chii]

i hate planes...i hate it that my parents like to drag me along when we travel, i'd rather stay home -__-

like a lot of people said...it sucks when your ears pop, after i landed i spent like the next few days trying to pop them i think riding a plane is kind of like riding one of those roller coaster type rides. it picks up speed and then it tilts up into the sky and blah blah.

i hate that planes have that new car smell, it always gives me a big headache

be really careful, airplane stuff is sooooo unsanitary. don't use the pillows or blankets they provide. the supplies are always reused even if it's in a plastic bag, they don't really sanitize them either. people do plenty of things with pillows and blankets, they drool on them, sneeze on them, and some people have sex under them. i know it's disgusting but it's true.

[Angel_Cece]

it isnt scary its pretty fun

[blonde@<3]

wow!! thx for all the advice and stuff! its really helpful!

and to answer someones question i'm goin from florida to california..its a school trip. hopefully won't be too long!

[mznina]

i get motion sickness. i try not to eat too much b4 i get on a plane. at first when u take off u ears pop a lil. but after awhile everything is cool.

[racoons > you]

not scary at all... my longest single flight has been 9 hours.. that was adrag! take a book, and some ds, and try and sleep

(also, bring your own snacks ALTHOUGH DONT TRY AND TAKE FOOD OFF THE AIRPLANE, as plane food is bleh)

[lilliannnn]

i've been on a plane at least 100 times. i travel alot.

no, it's not scary at all - but i don't like the feeling of it. i think it smells weird too. they only scary part is when you're landing and it makes a loud noise haha. HAVE FUN.

edit

reading the post above and i've been on a 29 hour plane flight.. new york to hong kong. not very entertaining.

[Soleil]

Ive been ridding planes since I was 15 months old...theres nothing to be scared of.

[beautifuls0ul_x3]

i've been on a plane more than 20 times and im only 13. i like it, it's just i hate it when ur ears pop...i just chew some gum when they do. i love it when u take off and land. wheeeeee! haha but the food isn't great always. 16 hours is the longest for me. my sister always pukes when she's on the plane, and it makes me feel like i have to puke. i hate her for doing that to me...

[dreamerOi]

ha i love riding planes . and its not scary i think its hmm nice hah.

[KELLYYY]

Duhhh. I rode one to Las Vegas.

[slipper]

it helps to close your eyes when it takes off.

i personally enjoy airplanes. try riding in one for 9 hours!!

[*salcha*]

yeeaaahyuh, 12 hour plane ride to Taiwan on the 16th! That's also the day school ends (= yesyesyes, 17 more days left of school.

[ItzOnlySydney]

JUNE 16TH WILL BE MY FIRST PLANE RIDE WOOHOOO!!

[emazing]

Yes, and good luck. I've only ridden on airplanes twice though - my brother's gone three times; my parents 6 times. They're in Texas right now, I believe. Anyway, last time I remembered stepping foot on a plane wasn't that scary.

[GoodCharlotteRoc...]

i've riden planes TONS of times.......but i don't remember how many times.
i'm going to ride a plane in July! i LOVE riding planes!
