Apparently there are close on 1,000,000 people in the air at any one time. There are on a variety of planes. Big ones, little ones, slow ones etc. All nicely bumbling along, most of them very smoothly but a few getting shaken by the air every now and again. Some will even get a bit jostled by one of my landings. Every few hours, another 1,000,000 people will be in the air. And you will shortly be one as well. Also, like all the others you will have a takeoff, climb, cruise, descent and landing. All be be OK. Try to enjoy it.

ps. Now heights really scare me. When I'm in a plane I'm OK but I nearly lose control of my bowels when I look down a stairwell or over a cliff edge.
