First trip on an airplane

[Cantw8]

Do you remember how old you were? Where did you go?

I don't remember exactly but I believe my first trip was to Bermuda with my father and I was around 11????

Gosh, I don't remember. I think it was when I was less than 4 or 5. Don't remember it at all. I'll have to do some research to tie down how old I was and where the flight was from/to. My dad was in the military and we moved every 18 months. Sometimes we traveled by car, sometimes we flew.

around 7, I went to Disney World.

I was in small personal planes as a young kids 3 or 4. My grandma's boyfriend had one and my friends father had a few. One was even an open air type, with your hair blowing around. That was cool!

I don't remember it but I was 3 months old. Flew from Denver to Pittsburgh to meet my grandparents (my parents were with me obviously lol). I have flown several times a year since birth, bribed with toys on each flight when I was a child. I remember getting smiley face pancakes as a meal on planes. Those were the days!

I remember so well I was 18, going from Cleveland to Orlando, ya think I was going to The World, wrong, I was going to bootcamp

I was 14 and won a trip to Sea World in San Jose in the 70's

7 years old in 1968 and we flew from Philadelphia to Miami. Dad wore his best suit, Mom and I wore fancy dresses on the plane. I think it was on Pan Am airlines but I could be mistaken.

Isn't it weird you can't remember something like that? You would think it would be a really strong memory but I am also unclear of it lol

Our grade two class went on a flight around the city. I didn't get a window seat though so I was pretty bummed out but I liked the thrill of take-off.

We moved from Winnipeg to Toronto when I was six months old. Try as I might, I just don't remember that plane ride.

I do remember it was Eastern and I got a pair of wings. Also dressed in my finest clothes..dress, leotards. mary janes, gloves and a hat..what a dork But that's the way it was done way back when

I would have been a lap infant, so my ability to remember would be rather limited.

The first flight I can remember was probably on a PSA 727 to Southern California. My memories are vague though. I do remember the smile painted on the plane.

Same but I was 20 and flying from Texas.

I don't remember it but when I was 5 months old, we moved from Texas to England. We moved from England to North Dakota when I was 5 but I don't remember that either. I didn't fly again until I was 19.

I was an infant, so don't remember, but the trip was to Europe.

The first trip I remember was also to Europe. I remember looking outside the windows and seeing the huge propellers. I was 3 or 4.

May 1966, I was 8. Sacramento to Saskatoon to go to my Grandfather's funeral. Only thing I remember about the flight was being allowed to get off the plane during a stopover in Edmonton, and getting lost in the airport and being afraid we would miss the final leg of our flight.

One flight I do remember was in about 1968 or 1969. LA Airways used to fly helicopters from Los Angeles International Airport to the Disneyland Heliport.

Disneyland heliport used to be next to the hotel, on the siding facing what is now the parking structure.

I was 6. We went to Spain to visit my mom's family. We travelled from Montreal to Madrid and then Madrid to Barcelona.

I remember getting sick on the plane and almost losing my doll at the airport.

January, 1985 - STL to Washington National. I was a senior in HS on a "Closeup" trip & we had to abort the landing just as we were coming in over the Potomic in sub zero temps. Was kind of scary.

Sorry for your downgrade LOL

I was only two or so the first time I was on a plane. I had circled the globe by the time I was five. Took off from Winnipeg heading west and arrived home approximately three and a half years later from the east. In between I had lived in Australia, gained a sister, and had a brother on the way...

I am a bit of a late bloomer compared to you guys.

My first flight was actually this time 10 years ago, so I would have been 31.

Was Canberra to Perth. Still don't know why I paid for a seat on the way over, as I spent almost all of the 4 and half hours in the bathroom, vomiting my way across Australia, even though I took air sick tablets....was horrible!!!!

Spent the first two days in Perth very dehydrated.

Got myself some better drugs on the way back and slept the whole way home.
