We leave in 4 days!! Why am I so nervous?

[meloneyb21]

We're going for the first time April 2nd, and the closer we get the more nervous I am. I've never been on a plane, so maybe that's why. We're taking SWA, I hope they're good. It's just like "I can't believe this is FINALLY happening!" I'm jittery all over.

There's probably also a big degree of excitment in there as well.

oh, I'm right there with ya! We leave Apr 4, flying on SWA as well. I've never flown either! Where are you staying?
I'm having irrational thoughts such as "something's going to happen to one of us to prevent us from going on this trip, something's going to happen to a family member and we won't be able to go, the airport's gonna disappear into thin air (okay, that's NOT going to happen...I told you they were irrational....)
It'll be alright! In a few short days we'll all be soakin up the magic in the World!

You’re going to have the time of your life. Remember with SWA you board in groups. ( A,B,C ) Check in online and print your boarding passes starting 24 hours before your flight and get yourself an A ticket. Don’t worry about lining up and standing for an hour waiting in the line. When they start to board go ahead and go to the back of the line and you'll have any seat past the wings you want. The first time flying SWA can be intimidating for a regular flyer as not knowing what to do. Follow this advice and you will have a great flight and a GREAT start to a wonderful Vacation.

I think that what you're feeling is completely normal for your first couple of visits - fear of the unknown - fear of all that you have to do - etc. I had it to, almost to the point of being frightened or feeling anxious. But you're going to have a great time. Only one piece of advice - beware of the WDW BUG. Before I went to WDW I kind of had a 'whatever' attitude. After the first visit I was hooked! It creeps up on you and bites you while you're sleeping or nips at your ankles while you're watching the afternoon parade, or sneaks in on a teardrop while you're gazing up at the evening firewords display, so be careful. All your free $$ will be going toward your next WDW trip!!

Enjoy yourself - there's truly NOthing like your very first WDW trip!

I could have just wrote your post! We leave on the morning of April 2nd but we are flying on AirTran. I am feeling overwhelmed now since this is the first time I have flown AND been to WDW! I'm right there with the excitement yet fearful at the same time.

I just saw you are staying at CSR! So are we!

Our first trip (two years ago), I was so wound up- I almost forgot to relax and have fun! My DB wanted to stop for a soda (and it wasn't soda TIME yet!!!!!) This next trip I will be better (Yeah, right). I'm sure you've done all your planning and packing so just enjoy- some things will not be exactly as you have planned- they might take longer or an attraction may close- but then there will be other magic that you never planned that will delight you and your family. Have a schedule- and then allow it to change- Have a great time!
