I've flown over 200,000 miles in the last five years, and I still get nervous every time a pilot announces we're flying through turbulence. My last trip from New York to London had a rough patch over the Atlantic that had me gripping the armrest. But the captain later said it's just like driving on a bumpy road—the plane is built to handle it. So, is turbulence actually something to fear, or is it our own anxiety that makes it worse? I wonder if frequent flyers ever truly get used to it, or if we're all just pretending to be calm. What's your experience with rough air?
