Flying is easy when you get the hang of it. I suggest you bring gum to pop your ears and a good book. Make sure to check your airlines limitations by going to their website and that helps quiet a bit and I learned a lot from it when I looked before flights. I think everyone who is new to flying has anxiety but they are used to it so just be early if you feel like you need to. The thing I hate is the new machines they have you go through they see everything and so I suggest you get a pat down instead but up to you because both are gross.
