A few facts:

1) Go-arounds are safe procedures.

2) Increased air traffic at airports increases the likelihood of go-arounds.

3) Passengers are scared of go-arounds because:

a) they rarely experience them
b) it feels like something has gone wrong
c) pilots - for understandable reasons - do not often explain what has happened
