Welcome to Virgin Atlantics Flying Without Fear Courses

I wanted to say a big thank you for a day that will have a major positive impact on my life. The course was just outstanding. I thought that everybody involved from the speakers to the group leaders and the flight staff were open, approachable, fun and genuinely cared about helping the group.

Most importantly, everyone was honest, there was no bull which for me and I’m sure lots of others was very reassuring. Before the course, my fear had manifested itself as feelings of claustrophobia when on board the plane, which got so bad that, 4 years ago, I got up and walked off a plane before it took off!

After that experience, just thinking about flying had made me feel panicky. I think, therefore, that the greatest compliment I can pay to you all is that, after the flight, my overwhelming feeling was one of anti-climax and ‘what on earth was I getting so worried about?’.

I think that, to turn me from a position where I thought I might never fly again to being eager to cash in all of my Air Miles, in the space of a one day course is a pretty remarkable achievement.

II am just emailing to say a big thank you to all of the team at yesterdays course, it was an excellent day and all of the staff went out of their way to be encouraging, supportive and helpful, and after being apprehensive about attending the course, I am so pleased that I did attend. My main worry about attending a ‘fear of flying’ course was (apart from the flight!) of feeling uncomfortable about asking questions that may have been perceived as obvious or stupid, but

this wasn’t a concern at all during the day such was the level of professionalism and attention of all the team. I have already recommended the course to friends of mine who are also afraid of flying and I sincerely hope they do take the step and attend one of your future courses.

Many thanks and kind regards,
Chris S. Staffs.

I just wanted to write and say how much I enjoyed the course yesterday. It has really changed my life – I wish I’d done it years ago!! In the past, even the sight of planes made me feel ill, and I spent months before every trip DREADING the flight. But after yesterday’s course, I looked forward to the flight, and wanted to go up again – I had never thought it possible!!

I had booked a flight to the US over Christmas to see my folks, this will be the first time I have flown alone. Now, thanks to you all – I shall ENJOY it – I never thought that possible. I’ll recommend you to everyone I know – I am a changed flyer – it’s a miracle! Now I will be able to take that dream trip to New Zealand sometime.
