British Airways has developed a program called 'Flying with Confidence', designed to help individuals overcome their fear of flying. Since its inception in 1986, over 50,000 people have participated, boasting a remarkable 98% success rate. The course includes educational sessions by pilots on flight safety and turbulence, alongside psychological support to manage anxiety. Participants often express profound emotional relief upon completing the course, enabling them to travel confidently. The initiative reflects a significant public need, as approximately one in four individuals experiences a fear of flying, confirming the program's importance and impact.
When they come off the aeroplane at the end of the day, there's tears of emotion. You hear things like, 'I'm a changed woman thank you so much, I can go and visit my grandchildren in Australia'.
There are literally millions of people around the world that have this fear. One in four people has some kind of fear of flying.
