Many people suffer anxiety at the prospect of flying. These fears range from anxiety at booking a trip to complete inability to board an aircraft. Whether it is the unfamiliar aircraft, the strange noises a plane makes, or the fear of losing control, this app is designed to help people overcome their personal fears.
Sir Richard Branson, President of Virgin Atlantic:
"This is Virgin Atlantic innovation at its best. Our first iPhone app will bring the benefits of our successful Flying Without Fear course to millions of people around the world who are now using mobile technology to make their lives better. The app will put many travellers at ease and enable them to prepare for their first Virgin Atlantic flight."
Virgin Atlantic's Flying Without Fear team recently helped American actress Whoopi Goldberg overcome her fear of flying. The actress had not flown for a decade but a business commitment in London meant she had to step on a plane once again.
After going through the course, Whoopi Goldberg said:
"I was a sceptic. I hadn't flown in 13 years but after doing their program, I understood that while my fear was real, there were many things I didn't know or had misinformation about, which they were able to clear up. So what happened? The program works. I now fly. It's that simple."

Customer Reviews
This is an awesome app
This app offers excellent tools to relax before and during a flight. I'm definitly afraid of flying and I will give this a try. I especially like the relaxation exercises in case of panic attacks. There are different exercises for many types of situations encountered during a flight.
Pretty good
It worked so good I want to be a pilot now:)
Good, not great
Has good information on various aircraft sounds and what happens between take off and landing, but there's not enough of it.
Mainly consists of hokey hypnosis-like advice with distracting new age music in the background. What is especially frustrating is that the voice is too quiet to be of any use on a flight without noise-cancelling headphones, plus you wouldn't be able to listen to it at take off or landing due to bans on electronics
Not worth it.
