There are programs for getting people over the fear of flying. Take one of them. They work. At one point they take you on a plane that isn't being used for a bit and get you comfortable being on the plane. I got into field service and was somewhat nervous my first flight. Early on I got window seats. The wall is curved so my legs didn't have very much room. After my first flight the nervousness went away. Best way to travel. Must have put on 2 or 3 million miles. Traveled all over the country and world. Went through 3 passports. The only continent I didn't go to was Antarctica. Almost went there because the tech that normally went was busy elsewhere. Went to California to pick up the repair parts and the tech was there so I just flew home.
I flew one or more places almost every week for 30 years.
Will take the fear of flying course. VS will give me a free one.
My wife and I did spend our honeymoon in the states.
One week in Kissimmee, one week on Sanibel island and one week in Naples.
When the kids have flown the nest, in about 8 years time (after putting them through university) my wife and I will honeymoon again in the states.
Next year is our 25th anniversary. We are going to a Fjord Cruise.
