I used to not have any fears about flying until our plane had to make an emergency landing in Narita, Japan coming home from Osaka, Japan back in 1996. It turns out it was just an A/C malfunction, but it was scary nonetheless, and there were a number of firetrucks waiting for us when we landed. Since then, I have flown many times including 12 flights (international travel) for our honeymoon alone, and although I have been much more nervous that I used to be (and it makes me mad that it used to be easier for me), I just try and think about how safe air travel really is, and how many hundreds of planes fly safely every day and how often my brother flies for his job, and that helps.
Plus I love traveling so much that it overrides my fear.
