I went on an airplane recently for 4 hours there and back with children all around me and not once did I have a bad experience. I was worried and politely hinted at someone when they were sitting by me because I chose the window seat and it was a great flight. I absolutely loved it with no issues or problems. I think you will be ok with a sedative it will calm you down and you wont be focusing on your anxieties and phobia. I hope you have a great flight and all is well. [img]smileys/smilies_04.gif[/img]
