*A Pilot Program Is Hoping Talking To One Will Ease Fear Of Flying*
For generations, fear of flying has kept some people from taking dream vacations or even visiting family and taking up work opportunities. Survey after survey identifies it as the most common travel-related fear while one estimate found that more than 40% of the U.S. population is afraid of being in the air to a lesser or greater degree. DON'T MISS: Many Airlines Will Be Flying Higher To Avoid In-Air Traffic Tapping into this common passenger fear, one pilot with a major U.S. airline launched a service in which someone can spend 15 minutes talking to a real pilot about these worries.

This Is How You Can Dial-A-Pilot Going only off his first name to avoid drawing attention to his employer, Kyle told Travel + Leisure that he launched "Dial A Pilot" after realizing that he was spending a lot of time answering his sister-in-law's questions about flying. "It hit me that there's a lot of people that are, one, afraid of flying, and [they] just don't quite understand it," he told the travel magazine. "And there's a lot of people on the other side of that. The pilots that understand it well love talking to the passengers and would be happy to make themselves available." Along with posting short videos explaining common travel fears on TikTok, Kyle also got together a network of pilots who take time to answer common flying-related questions. @dial_a_pilot Helping people understand flying is the name of our game.

Many of Kyle's TikTok videos about flying fears have gathered hundreds of thousands of views while one talking about the service is now almost at one million. While Kyle is currently keeping his last name quiet to not draw attention to the airline if he goes viral, there is potential for "Dial A Pilot" to potentially partner with airlines to promote the service for anxious passengers. Along with regularly answering questions under his TikTok and Instagram posts, Kyle and "Dial A Pilot" are also currently working on a feature for those looking to ask questions specific to delays or what to do during travel disruptions. "Early morning is typically a little bit smoother going into Las Vegas!" they wrote under a video of an airplane driving down the tarmac to the gate.

How to Get Over Fear of Flying -- By Talking to a Real Pilot
A new business focusing on common flying fears is blowing up on TikTok.
*Act Fast: Appleās New 15-inch MacBook Air Has Never Been Cheaper*
Launched earlier this summer, Appleās 15-inch MacBook Air is a perfect laptop for those who want a big screen in an ultra-lightweight build that doesnāt compromise power. Sweetening the appeal of Appleās latest MacBook Air even more is a new, all-time low discount, courtesy of Amazon. The Arena Media Brands, LLC and respective content providers to this website may receive compensation for some links to products and services on this website. You can save a massive $200--or 15%--on the entry-level 15-inch MacBook Air in any of the four elegant colors. You get Appleās efficient and speedy M2 chip, 8GB of RAM, and 256GB of solid-state storage for $1,099, and Prime members will get fast two-day shipping. As with most discounts on Apple products, especially ones like this that introduce an all-time low price, youāll want to act fast and checkout before the deal expires or sells out.Apple 15-inch MacBook Air, $1,099 (was $1,299) at Amazon Apple Like the 13-inch MacBook Air with M2 and the more expensive 14-inch or 16-inch MacBook Pros, the 15-inch boasts a slim, modern build with rounded corners in either Midnight, Starlight, Space Gray, or Silver. It weighs just 3.3-pounds and is only 11.5-millimeters thick, meaning you can easily toss it in a bag or backpack without weighing yourself down. Leading the feature list as the main differentiator between the other MacBook Airs in the lineup is the 15.3-inch Liquid Retina display. It not only packs a punch with a brightness that can compete against artificial or environmental light, but also delivers a high amount of color vibrancy, creating an immersive experience. While obvious, our favorite part is that it is simply larger, making it really easy to work between many windows. For instance, you could open a FaceTime window on the left side of your screen using the upgraded 1080p HD integrated camera and have plenty of room for other windows on the right. With the Apple-made M2 chip inside--specifically an 8-Core CPU, 10-Core CPU, and 16-Core Neural Engine--youāll be hard-pressed to slow things down. In our testing, we could export a 4K video in iMovie or Final Cut Pro, cruise through Photoshop batch edits, and open Safari or Chrome with dozens of tabs without slowing the machine down. Jacob Krol/TheStreet Whether itās work or play, the 15-inch MacBook Air can handle the task and stay cool while doing it all. This is a fanless laptop thanks to the efficiencies of the M2 chip and thermal design, which eliminates the leafblower sound that tends to occur on Intel-based MacBooks during intense tasks In terms of connectivity, youāll find a headphone jack on the right hand side, while two USB-C/Thunderbolt 4 Ports and a MagSafe 3 charging port are on the left. Apple also promises 18 hours of battery life and multiple days on standby, which we verified in our testing. Thanks to the extra space, you get a six-speaker system that offers more oomph and bass over the 13-inch MacBook Air with M2 and better separates different elements of a track. At $200 off in this well-timed back-to-school sale, there has never been a better reason to get the 15-inch MacBook Air. So whether you need a laptop for college that will last all four years or just want to replace an older Intel-powered MacBook Air or Pro, youāll get a ton of mileage from the 15-inch MacBook Air. Score it in Midnight, Starlight, Silver, or Space Gray while itās marked down on Amazon. @jakekrol Letās #unbox the brand new 15-inch #MacBookAir in midnight. It supersizes the #Air to a 15.3 #retinadisplay and a six speaker setup with #alldaybatterylife and the M2Chip. Starts at $1,299 ā what do you think? #apple #macbook #macbookair #applelaptop #apples #starlight #ultraportable #thin #compact #travel #usbc #magsafe ⬠My Barn My Rules - MCR-T & horsegiirL Prices are accurate and items in stock at time of publishing.

*National Geographic's 'Never Say Never' sets out to make travel more inviting for everyone*
Globetrotting is an experience that isn't as accessible as it should be. While we can all agree that leaving your home to experience a new place builds character, weāve still got a ways to go before traveling is as easy for some as it is for others. Austin-based travel journalist Jeff Jenkins just wants to see more people who look like him embracing their wanderlust. His new travel show, in partnership with Disney (DIS) - Get Free Report and National Geographic, is all about putting himself in new places outside of his comfort zone in hopes that others like him will be inspired. DONāT MISS: Disabled travelers keep asking airlines to stop breaking their wheelchairs Jenkinsā travel plans are very intentional -- his desire to avoid the ātouristy thingsā and find something that challenges him gives the series its flavor. In Japan, Jenkins shares the vulnerability of taking his shirt off while displaying his newly learned sumo wrestling skills. In New Zealand, Jenkins shares his feelings about his unknowable lineage as a Black ancestor of slavery with members of the Maori tribe. More in entertainment: A low-cost āvirtual airlineā launched at the start of summer is already going under A country popular with digital nomads may soon scrap visas allowing citizenship rights Labor Day travelers get mostly good news @chubbydiaries We in Vietnam this week!! #neversaynever #natgeo #travel #vietnam ⬠original sound - Jeff Jenkins Not every traveler is going to be able to get a guided tour of Hanoi from fashion model Jessica Mihn Ahn, but Jenkinsā intentionality with travel could inspire any traveler. But for those who donāt see themselves represented in line at the average tourist destination, the writer illustrates how being a stranger in a strange land can be a path to learning more about yourself. āJust keep goin', step by step," he says to himself after climbing to the top of the 422-step Ti Top Island staircase. "Do this for your mom, do this for your family. Do this for all the fat people out there." The show sends the award-winning travel writer to eight locations, including international spots like Mexico, Vietnam, and Iceland. There are also domestic destinations like New Mexico and the Adirondack Mountains in New York for U.S. residents -- because itās not about getting far away, itās about having a life-changing experience.

National Geographic's 'Never Say Never' sets out to make travel more inviting for everyone
Globetrotting is an experience that isn't as accessible as it should be.

His new travel show, in partnership with Disney (DIS) - Get Free Report and National Geographic, is all about putting himself in new places outside of his comfort zone in hopes that others like him will be inspired. DONāT MISS: Disabled travelers keep asking airlines to stop breaking their wheelchairs Jenkinsā travel plans are very intentional -- his desire to avoid the ātouristy thingsā and find something that challenges him gives the series its flavor.

*Internet agrees on one simple rule of plane overhead storage etiquette*
After airlines started to crack down on stowed luggage by making it more and more expensive to bring on shorter flights, the issue of plane overhead space has become even more pressing. It is not uncommon for gate agents to ask those with larger carry-on bags to check them for free at the last minute because overhead space inside the cabin has run out while several travel surveys found that issues around overhead storage (in particular, not being able to fit one's bag while a line is forming behind you or having to place it too far away from one's seat) is a significant source of travel anxiety for many.Related: Hate long lines? One airport is letting people book security screening times The issue recently came to a head in a viral TikTok video around overhead storage etiquette that quickly went viral and gathered more than 3.6 million views in a few days. @dxnielbennett straight to jail #airport #travel #goodpeople ⬠original sound - Daniel Bennett 'They're a good person and they're aware of their surroundings' "The easiest way to tell if someone is a good person or not is to see where they put their luggage when they get on a plane," influencer Daniel Bennett told his 500,000-plus followers. "If they put their carry-on luggage in the overhead compartment and they put their personal item like their backpack or their purse under their seat, they're a good person and they're aware of their surroundings." More Travel:A new travel term is taking over the internet (and reaching airlines and hotels)The 10 best airline stocks to buy nowAirlines see a new kind of traveler at the front of the plane The issue, Bennett explains in the video, comes down to those who place smaller items such as coats, shopping bags and laptop cases into the overhead compartment and leave no room for larger carry-on suitcases that cannot fit anywhere else. Most airlines have a standard carry-on suitcase limit of 22 x 14 x 9 inches but, with more travelers choosing to forgo checked baggage to avoid ever-increasing fees, many planes often do not have enough room for everybody's items. As a result, flight attendants then start asking volunteers to start checking their carry-on bags. While some travelers expect this and even purposefully pack their carry-on to the brim to get it checked, others have things that they do not want going with checked baggage.The type of baggage behavior that deserves a 'jail sentence for life' "If [travelers] put their backpack or their purse or that little small item, then no one else can put their carry-on luggage on and they have to check it and wait by baggage claim to get their stuff," Bennett said while joking adding that these are "the worst type of person that deserve a jail sentence for life." Bennett's stance on overhead etiquette proved pretty controversial ā one traveler said that his backpack is often his only carry-on luggage while another argued that one does not "own the overhead compartment" just because they brought bigger carry-on luggage. Others argued that this situation was created largely by airlines squeezing passengers with baggage fees ā by making it cheaper to check luggage, they would free up space in the cabin. "If I check my only suitcase, I get an overhead space for my backpack," the influencer behind the @travelwithjason account wrote. "I'll die on that hill. The real criminals are seat recliners and early standers."

*A flight attendant's unusual 'hack' for getting more liquids through security is going viral*
While her employer may not applaud the suggestion to squeeze more into one's carry-on, a Delta Air Lines (DAL) - Get Free Report flight attendant has been catching significant internet attention for a hack she uses to maximize how much liquid she can bring onto the plane. As the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) does not restrict how many liquid containers of less than 3.4 ounces one can bring past security as long as they all fit into a single quart-sized bag, flight attendant Seymon Kates recommended pouring what one wants to bring into the plastic containers used for transporting breast milk.Related: TikTok has found yet another 'travel hack' for getting an empty plane seat "If you guys like oat milk or any kind of milk or condiments, get a breast milk bag and put your liquids in there," Kates says in the video as she demonstrates pouring almond milk from the bottle into the plastic bag. "They do not spill." @flyingwithskates A travel hack from a flight attendant if you like to meal prep like i do grab some milk breast bag and fill up your liquids . . . . . . #flightattendant #dayinthelifeofaflightattendant #flightattendants #flightattendants #flightattendantlife #pikeplacemarket #dayinthelifeofaflightattendant #travelhacks #travel #cabincrew #cabincrewlife ⬠Otra Vez - ProdMarvin 'Grab some breast milk bags and fill up your liquids...' Packages of 3.4-ounce plastic bags are typically purchased by breastfeeding travelers on Amazon (AMZN) - Get Free Report for around $15 for a package of several dozen but can also be used to transport other things as it fits into the TSA's 3.4-ounce requirement and makes liquids and gels easy to transport. Due to their compact nature, they can also be used to fit more liquid into the quart-size bag. Kates concludes the 31-second video by showing how to seal the plastic breast milk bag tightly and shaking it upside down.

"This will save so much room in my lunch box," wrote Ashton of the @TravelWithAshton account. The TSA liquid rule was introduced 17 years ago in 2006 as a post-9/11 response after terrorists tried to transport explosives in a water bottle. While over the years airport authorities have slackened on not having to have every small container in a separate plastic bag, what is known as the 3-1-1 rule still requires any liquids in volume greater than 3.4 ounces to be packed in a checked bag or disposed of prior to passing through security. But as the TSA regularly reminds travelers in its press releases, many travelers are still confused about this rule as tens of thousands of full-size liquid containers are confiscated in front of security screening at the different airports across the country every year.

While over the years airport authorities have slackened on not having to have every small container in a separate plastic bag, what is known as the 3-1-1 rule still requires any liquids in volume greater than 3.4 ounces to be packed in a checked bag or disposed of prior to passing through security. But as the TSA regularly reminds travelers in its press releases, many travelers are still confused about this rule as tens of thousands of full-size liquid containers are confiscated in front of security screening at the different airports across the country every year.

A flight attendant's unusual 'hack' for getting more liquids through security is going viral
"If you like to meal prep like I do, grab some breast milk bags and fill up," the Delta flight attendant says in the video.
*A tech founder is calling out Southwest for disgusting in-flight situation*
While many disgusting moments on different airlines have gone viral over the years, new ones never fail to tap into the internet's salacious and can't-look-away instincts. The latest travel post to gather over four million views on TikTok occurred when an artificial intelligence startup founder posted an eight-second video of "unidentified liquid drips" over her seat in the back of a Southwest (LUV) - Get Free Report plane.Related: Delta flight forced to make emergency turnaround for a very smelly reason "POV: unidentified liquid drips from someone else's bag on you the entire flight because the flight attendant said she can't move you or the bag," 24-year-old Sophie Shaw wrote overtop the footage of water dripping from the overhead compartment above her flight. @pocketmouse35 Im filing a claim dw #southwest #flightattendant #flighthorrorstories #flying #travel #traveltiktok #plane ⬠Lifehack - Itsyourboymrkebs 'Filing a claim, don't worry,' traveler tells TikTok followers of experience The entrepreneur, founder of AI company Azuryne, was using the airline to travel between San Jose, Calif. and Santa Ana, Calif. In the caption to the video, Shaw also told her followers that she was "filing a claim dw [don't worry]." The eight-second footage is also accompanied by dramatic Halloween-style music culminating in a honking tun-tun-tun. More Travel:A new travel term is taking over the internet (and reaching airlines and hotels)The 10 best airline stocks to buy nowAirlines see a new kind of traveler at the front of the plane The video had initially only been seen by Shaw's friends but started gathering steam on the internet in January a few weeks after the incident. It has now been viewed nearly 4.5 million times and received over 136,000 upvotes. In an interview with news outlet Kennedy News, Shaw explained that she was not able to move the bag herself due to being 5'2 and too short to reach it in the back of the overhead compartment while a Southwest flight attendant reportedly told her that she could neither move the bag nor put her in a different seat. "It was the worst experience on a plane I've ever had," Shaw described to the news outlet while also comparing it to "Chinese water torture" in reference to a fifteenth-century torture method in which water is dripped onto someone's forehead slowly but consistently over a long period of time.Commenters weigh in: 'The flight attendant couldn't just make an announcement?' The San Francisco native also said that she had gone to sleep while waiting for the flight to take off but woke up when she felt her legs and seat "completely soaked" and discovered a "big drip coming from the ceiling." While Southwest has not been reaching out with responses to questions on how it handled Shaw's situation, TikTok users quickly jumped in to express outrage on her behalf and criticize the airline's actions even though the drip was most likely caused by a fellow passenger. "I wouldāve said so loudly 'WHOSE BAG IS THIS!!!!'" one commenter wrote in a post that was upvoted more than 56,000 times. "The flight attendant couldn't just make the announcement asking who's [sic] bag that was," wrote another. Shaw, in turn, later clarified that the flight attendants tried to fix it by putting some paper towels into the overhead compartment. "They put some paper towels in the locker so I guess they had tried to fix something but couldn't," Shaw told Kennedy News. Southwest has not been reaching out to talk about its clean-up efforts or what caused the leakage.
