MY FIRST PLANE RIDE ALONE My internal organs thumped against my chest as I dragged my bag along the floor and into the corridor. As I walked into the hall‚ I glanced up and notice the sign I could get on. My entire body could barely hold itself together with the anticipation of the dream come-true event about to take place.

Besides‚ flying is a thrilling thing‚ though‚ statistics show that it’s 25 times safer
