Do you need anyone to come along and carry your suitcases?

I am only taking one suitcase...I figure the LESS luggage
the EASIER check-in will be....But I DO appreciate the
offer.....

Yeah flying can be a bit scary sometimes.
I hate it when you get the seats by the wings ,you can see
the wings bend and tremble the whole flight , it looks like
they are gonna break any second.

Thats why movies and the booze on planes is such a good
thing =)
Takes your mind of it.

I've flown A LOT, since I was a little kid, so I'm pretty
used to it. I prefer shorter flights to longer ones. And
for some reason I HATE flying at night, especially
overnight.

The slightest turbulence will put me on edge - but if it's a
relatively smooth flight, i'm fine. I love looking out the
window and seeing the cities and roads and stuff from 30,000
ft. I even thought about becoming a pilot- but i don't
think i'd want that much responsiblity.

Planes are cool.

Watch out for plane monkeys! Captian James T. Kirk knows
all about them.

hehehe........oye i had no idea there were so many PHOBIAS
about flying.

well.....it's my job you know.....so everything you guys
talk about well.....ehhehe doesn't bother me ....EXCEPT
drunk passengers.....that seriously BITES....so don't get
drunk!! or you'll be tossed. expect delays into San Fran,
otherwise it should be a quick flight no worries.

just remember like JediChris said, it's more dangerous
driving to the airport than taking a flight!

take care =0)

Flying sucks if you are tall like me !!!!!
No room for the legs.
It is really uncomfortable under long flights.

i just flew back from iceland yesterday, the plane was
pretty empty so there was a lot of room to strech out and
relax, it was one of the best flights i've had in a long
time.

seats by the doors are often the best.
Plenty of room for my long legs.
You can book those seats when checking in ,but i always
forget that before its to late.

Flying is boooooring!!!
The only fun part is the lift of and landing.

Parrallel approach into SFO landing 28R / 28L over the bay
is heaven.

The runway layout there does mean that with fog, and when
visibility gets below certain minimums, they have to use
only one runway for landing and takeoff.

The summer isn't too bad, even though the fog rolls like
clockwork in the afternoon.

4000ft over the San Mateo bridge, tip toe approach with the
windsurfers out, usually another plane landing not 400 feet
to either side of you. A airplane fanatics dream.

Enjoy the city, where did your sis graduate from?
