22 Years million miles sometimes 6 flights a month as SLF and not even once a gut in mouth feeling due to turbulence. Same period being rear ended 4 times and T boned once, besides numerous dinks and dings on the car.
Get on board tell the Hostie your fear, hopefully you have a Frequent flyer in the seat next to you and off you go.
Have had a fearful lady (thank god she was a model) seated next to me on a flight. Had my arm gouged out by her at take off, pleasant conversation enroute where she asked me to keep talking and some more nail marks during landing, but it seemed to have worked for both of us
