It’s all about TRUST
The Challenge for you to overcome your fear.
You can only get this program’s full benefits once you can once again trust the airline industry and the people who work in it.
If you believe that commercial aviation is dangerous, then there are no techniques to make your flights comfortable, and this course will make little difference.
If your goal is to fly comfortably, you must add the purpose of making peace with the airlines; that’s what we do, and this course works.
More than reassurance about airline safety is required, and that’s where FlyFearless differs from other courses. You’ll learn the PARADOX technique to overcome your anxiety.

What our previous participants say
Don’t take our word for it – here’s what our participants say:

I took the Fly Fearless course on October 5th and was due to move to Australia, a 25-hour journey ten days later. The course was fantastic, and it is not in any way psychology but simply educational. The minute I arrived for the course, I felt very welcome and at ease, which meant a lot, especially when I was on my own.
Then only yesterday, I did something I never thought I would have considered until Michael’s course. I jumped out of a plane from 15,000ft, and I now have that fantastic experience thanks to the Fly Fearless course.
My life has been completely changed, and so many options have opened up to me; now, my fear is under control, and that’s something you can’t put a price on.
Thank you to Michael and the team at Fly Fearless, an incredible course.

Brilliant day. I feel so much more confident about flying. Very informative. I’m actually excited about going on my holidays in April now.
Lisa Charles
Forever grateful to Michael. 32 years old and booked my first flight to London in two weeks’ time. You made the unknown known and normalised it all for me. I really enjoyed the simulator as it allowed me to experience how it will feel on a flight. This will change my life forever. Maria.
I am sorry I didn’t take
this course with Fly
Fearless before now! The
content and experience in
the simulator was
invaluable in helping me
address my concerns.
Michael was a fantastic
instructor got to the
heart of my concern very
quickly enabling me to
address it. Thank you for
all your support and
advice. I look forward to
my next flight and putting
in to practice what you
taught me.

Most amazing experience.Michael has a world of knowledge when it comes to aeroplanes and flying. It was fun and a great day, but most of all, his expertise and knowledge helped me and my partner in ways I didn’t think were possible. As soon as we got home, we booked our flights and accommodation in London in two weeks.fear has turned into excitement and we can’t wait for our first trip abroad.all thanks to Michael and his team.we are forever grateful
Emma Coughlan
I would highly recommend this course to any nervous flyers. Two weeks after the course, I was able to get on a 2 hour flight with no nerves at all. I actually ended up really enjoying flying for the first time in years.

I just wanted to send you an email to thank you so sincerely for the information and techniques you shared on the course. I have just landed and am still on the plane, having flown to Amsterdam for a lovely post-Xmas break with my family; all the techniques worked so well on both flights – my left-handed writing is really coming along!!!
So just to say a huge thank you again, this is my first return flight or any flight in 3 years and the most relaxed I’ve ever been on the plane.
Thank you again!

Helpful and insightful course with practical advice!
I took the FlyFearless course on June 12th last. Since I took the course, I’ve been on three return flights! One long haul (Portland, Oregon [9.5 hours!!!]) and two short hauls (London and Lisbon). I feel like my old self. I can’t believe it; I’ve come to enjoy the sensations of flying again!
It helped me to learn about the technical aspects of flying. The noises, the bells, the degrees at which the pilot steers the plane, the reason why the seatbelt sign goes on and why the pilot might not make many announcements, what turbulence is and how to go with the bounce rather than grip the armrest all stressed out…
The psychological aspect of the course was also insightful and helped me spot what my mind does to influence my emotions negatively and vice versa. I can get out of that miserable loop quicker these days, and it’s down to the stuff I learned in this course. That, along with ensuring I’m not tired, hungry, or angry before takeoff.
Being given these details by industry experts and the advice on what flight path tools I can use pre-flight has calmed down the noise in my brain during flights. I’m so thankful for it.
I never thought I’d get close to being how I used to be on flights – but it’s happening. I nearly fell asleep on my last one instead of being uncomfortably hyper-alert.
I recommend this course to anyone anxious about flying – whether you’ve always been nervous about it or, like me, you loved flying before. Still, the anxiety developed slowly and took over over time.
Date of experience: 12 June 2022
