We’re told that it’s the safest form of transportation.

With over 100 years of experience between them, we’re joined by the family of pilots to ease your fears around flying.

    Such a treat hearing people talking about “aeroplanes” and not “airplanes” !!
  • I have NEVER experienced severe turbulence in all my years of flying and I'm 68.
  • I’ve flown with Tom this year on my SNY flight in April and he is amazing!!! ✈️☁️

    On my last flight on Easy Jet to fuerteventura, we experienced bad turbulence off the coast of Portugal. The pilot swiftly contacted air traffic and managed to get us a higher flight altitude to avoid it
  • I'm very proud of my arnty and uncle and his brother Henry and Hayley are my arnty and uncle I am very very proud and I have never met his brother🎉🎉🎉
  • I enjoy aircraft & flying… but always get air sick 🤢 about 1 hour into the flight 😢
  • I love this, just wish they had concentrated more on turbulence and the affects on the plane but I appreciate they didn’t have much time.
  • @CatsandJP
    Completely different story here on the other side of the world..especially from America down to Australia and New Zealand…which is either going over the Pacific or Indian Oceans…including Boeing plane fails…doesn’t always make for great flying experiences…and now 2 astronauts are stuck on the ISS because of another Boeing failure.

    🍀I love this video- and I love flying many years ago I was stewardess👍🌹🌿🇮🇸😁
  • HEPA filters= High Efficiency Particulate Air filters. I'm surprised the pilot didn't know that.
  • @tomjardine100
    Husband and wife flying scares me more than turbulence
  • My parents are chicken littles and refuse to fly. Dad says when he's on a plane, I will be carrying his ashes. 😮
  • I dislike flying due to random scary turbulence and air pockets I have experienced all over the world. But made myself do it to see things 🧭

    Deirdre Rashid got scammed by a dodgy pilot and ended up in prison.
