Have a good flight. Stephen Send a noteboard - 15/08/2011 08:02:19 PM
Can you believe it? 27 years old and this is my first. I'm flying out of George Bush Intercontinental here in Houston and flying to Dayton, Ohio. It's pretty exciting stuff. Just a little bit nervous. I know from Superman that, statistically speaking, flying is the safest way to travel. So I'm not too worried. Anybody here never flown before? I was nervous about how to do all that airport stuff but it was actually pretty easy. Get your boarding pass on the machine, check in your bag, drop it off, go through security with no shoes, and bam! you're done. I came extra early and it went so fast that now I am waiting here in Chili's


One of the first flights i remember taking was in a plane that was like a van with wings which took of from the back of a tiny airfield which had a larger bar than checkin area.

I'm sure your flight will be much smoother.

I do! Dark Knight - 15/08/2011 06:15:22 PM 490 Views
Definitely a window seat for your first flight. After which you should always get an aisle seat. Aemon - 15/08/2011 06:39:20 PM 499 Views
And even better than the aisle is the exit row. heartbreak - 16/08/2011 02:31:31 PM 458 Views
