My name is Michael Hinchliffe and I live in Torquay.I am now aged 70 and have always been a complete nervous wreck when flying, right from the age of 18.Two years ago my wife asked me if I would like to go on holiday to Australia, which I immediately dismissed.Two weeks or so later my wife suggested I go on a Fear of Flying course with Easyjet. The course consisted of a week online tutorial (you must fully partake in this, otherwise the course will not be of any use whatsoever to you), followed by a 40 minute flight out of Bristol Airport in my case. As well as the flight deck crew a full compliment of cabin crew, Mark Wein Course Director and a current Easyjet pilot were in the cabin. Once everybody was seated, including my wife who came along for me, the pilot in the cabin explained everything that was taking place (noises etc), from the minute we started taxiing from the gate until we were back stationary at the gate.I gave the course a bit of thought and decided to go along tongue in cheek, thinking they'll never help me.I could not have been more wrong. Since attending the course in early 2024 we have been to Australia in January/February 2025, and are booked to go again in November 2027.Australia is the only place we have been that both my wife and I have said we would love to live there. Sadly, we are too old (over 45) with no other connections to the country to be able to obtain a visa.In conclusion, I am not going to recommend going to live in Australia, that has to be a personal decision for every individual person. However, if you have any issues with flying then this Easyjet course is definitely the one for you. If they can help me as they did then, trust me, they can help anybody.I have given the course a 5* rating with Trustpilot, the maximum possible. However, on a personal note, I would rate it 10* out of 10*.Take this course, you will not regret it.I have shown 3/1/2025 as the date for the course, nothing possible much earlier than that on the system, but actually took in either January or February 2024.
