Congratz on your New York trip, i've always wanted to go there!! lucky, lucky! lol. well... im sure your flying will be okay, i used to be terrified of it, but i've flown enough now. im still a tiny bit nervous but nothing like i was. I flew overseas almost 2 years ago to Europe and was stuck on a plane for about 8 hours at once. it was kinda scary but nice too. the overseas planes are nice if your ever on one! and i've also been on many other ones through the years. hope you dont get too scared! it will be fun! enjoy your trip!
