A phobia is an already advanced disease. At the stage when the fear is not yet so strong, you need to adhere to simple recommendations. It is advisable to give up books, films and any sources of information about plane crashes, especially before the flight. Also, before vacation, you should stop the diet, as it is very stressful for the body. If it is difficult to control yourself, a sedative always comes to the rescue. To drive away unnecessary thoughts, you need to keep yourself occupied during the flight. You can find an interlocutor, watch an exciting TV series, read your favorite book.

Fear arises from misunderstanding and uncertainty. It is necessary to clearly understand that the plane was not built by fools, and its operation costs a lot of money. Nobody benefits from plane crashes. Each liner is equipped with redundant braking systems and landing gear release.
