MY FIRST TIME ON AN AIRPLANE

I was very excited to fly on an airplane. I asked people who had traveled on an airplane before lots of questions about traveling. I had never traveled on an airplane before, so I was a little nervous. Everyone I knew who had flown on an airplane told me that they liked it, I would like it too, it wasn’t scary, so I would be fine. That was a little comforting to hear. I was all packed and ready. I traveled from Negril to Montego Bay, where I would catch my morning flight to Charlotte, North Carolina. I got to the airport in Montego Bay, I went through customs, I waited around for a few minutes, and then we boarded. I got the window seat that I always wanted, so I could see Jamaica from thousands of feet up in the sky. I was on the plane for about fifteen minutes and then I saw Cuba. It was amazing to see Jamaica and Cuba for the first time from the air. We flew along the coast of Cuba for a while, and it was not bad at all. I got up when it was safe, used the bathroom, and then returned to my seat. About an hour and a half of being in the sky, I could not see land any more, the plane was going through some thick clouds, then suddenly the plane started shaking, I was very nervous, and I could tell lots of the others were nervous too. Then the pilot got on the intercom and said, “we are just experiencing some turbulence, no need to worry.” We continued the journey to our destination. It was a smooth flight

    The date was June 14, 2034. I was flying to London, England with my private jet. It was a beautiful day. The clouds were puffy and white, the sun was shining, and there was no wind. Then all of a sudden, there was a lot of turbulence. The plane was going crazy going left, then right, then back to the left. My pilot told me to not panic and that everything is going to be fine, but I was having cold feet. The turbulence became so wild, the pilot announced that the plane will have to land on the nearest ground.…

    My heart sank to my stomach, as I hated to fly on planes. I couldn’t even fathom the thought that I was stuck on this plane forever. I rubbed my hand along the smooth armrest and gripped the end as tightly as I could, hoping this was all a dream. Unfortunately, it was not.…

    Because I was at the back, I couldn't tell what was going on in the first class section. Three people with red bandannas entered the cockpit. The had left one person outside of the cockpit who was holding something in his hand. After a minute or so, they came back out of the cockpit dragging two bodies behind them. They went back in the cockpit and within a minute we were told from the new pilot that they had a bomb on board. They allowed us to make phone calls. I was the first one to be able to make a call. My parents didn't pick up the phone, so I left a message telling them that my plane had been hijacked. After I left a message, I sat down in my seat and let others…

    What felt like only minutes later we touched down. As I stepped down the steps of the airplane I could smell the salty sea water and hear the palm trees swaying in the wind like they were dancing. All four of us scurred of the plane like little rabbits being let out of their cage for the first time. Not one person was any less excited than the next and In no time I found myself in the rental car. The tires of the car glided on the road seamlessly. We arrived at our hotel just hours later.…

    On June 12, 2006, I was ready to board my flight at San Diego International airport, when I was given a once in a lifetime experience. As I began to board, the captain and first officer were greeting the passengers ahead of me. The line was moving very slowly; however, I eventually made it to the front. The captain and I began talking when all of a sudden he asked a very typical question, “What do I want to be when I grow up?” I responded, “I want to be a pilot” and for no apparent reason offered to take me into the cockpit. Inside the cockpit, the captain continued to talk about the plane while pointing to instruments such as altimeter and vertical speed indicator, when I suddenly asked him, “How did he become a pilot?” He responded by saying,…

    November 17, 2015 was one of the most memorable days in my life. After eleven long years I was finally going to see my family in New Orleans. My cousin, Mykeasha, and I had to fly all the way from California to Louisiana. Since we had to board the plane in LA(Los Angeles) my mother-in-law decided that she would take us.

It started to seem real and I knew that in a few hours we will no longer be in California. When…

    The plane lurched forward and I edged it towards the runway. It’s wheels began to roll quicker and quicker as I pushed the throttle further away from me. I came close to the edge of the runway and pulled the control wheel backwards in towards my stomach, the plane shifted upwards, it’s nose pointed towards the sky and we began to fly. My stomach began to somersault as we gained altitude. I had never grown accustomed to the feeling of liftoff…

    I couldn't forget the day when I got a chance to travel by plane for the first time. I was in grade five and I was 10 years old. Unfortunately, I had to travel alone because my parents didn't get a leave from their office. I was flying from my hometown of Kathmandu to Pokhara. Although, that was a domestic flight I was so excited while travelling to my maternal uncle's house. The plane was shaking abnormally at the time of take off. I was so scared, for a while I thought that I made a wrong decision to travel by plane and would had been much better, if I had travelled by any road vehicle rather than by plane. I had a negative thought at that time because I thought that something was going wrong with that plane . After reaching above the ground level, I felt safe and my heart started beating normally. I got a chance to see my eye pleasing beauty of nature and really enjoyed the scenery outside. After flying around one and half hours plane landed at Pokhara domestic airport. My maternal uncle and his whole family were there to welcome me. I made a call and informed my parents that I arrived safely. That day was one of the most memorable and pleasurable day of my life because I got a chance to fly and meet my maternal uncle and his family after several years. Nowadays, while travelling by plane I still remember my first flight experience and brings a smile to my face .…
