Only met one person who hates flying? Meet another! *I* hate flying. The heights don't scare me.. other than the potential problems they create if your craft should falter. As an engineer, I think of how so many millions of parts must work perfectly ( or nearly perfectly )to make that flight happen. And I know how things can fail... esp when economies are bad & cost cutting abounds.
I would point out that the main concern many here might have should not be for the actual flights. Rather, it would be difficulty of navigating the connections & the fear of the CO lines.. esp at a big airport like LAX. Those things obviously scale pretty well inversely with knowledge of English. But, I personally rather be there for my honey... Its a small effort to get our life in the USA off to the best possible start.
I flew with my honey to Da Nang. First flight for her & her sister. They handled it like it was nuthin.
