    I wonder if it really works and how much the app will cost because the course is expensive.

    I just take a sleeping pill and take a nice nap to conquer my fear of flying.

    What is there to fear? Safest form of transportation.

    I was nervous my first time. Now I fly all over. It gets easier with every flight.

    I'm sorry but no stupid phone is going to calm my fear of flying, there are only two things that can calm a panic attack, pills and booze! Fear of flying app would not cut it... well unless it dispenses anti anxiety medication with a shot of patron to chase....
