<p></p>
<p><br/> Flying long haul (especially overnight) and worried about airplane seat comfort? After all, nobody wants to land at their destination feeling fatigued and uncomfrtable. But if you're traveling coach, low humidity along with narrow seats with minimal reclinability and legroom all add up to what can be a pretty unpleasant six to 18-plus hours.</p>

<p>As teenagers, we conducted our lives with remarkably little concern about risk. We seemed to think nothing could go wrong. When we went out for the evening and mom said, “Honey, be careful”, we thought she was from some other planet. Flying is rarely a problem for a teenager, unless there is concern about having a panic attack. Planes are automatically thought of as safe.<br/><br/></p>
<p>But in a person’s twenties, things change. The average age of onset of fear of flying is 27. As we mature, we become more aware that something could happen to us that is beyond our control. When we consider taking a flight, we open up a mental file folder titled, “Bad Things That Could Happen If I Fly.”</p>

Admittedly there has been some abuse of the ESA system, but I have recently flown successfully with my rat-terrier mix Papito, and it’s hard to imagine keeping him zipped into a cramped carrier for a nine-hour flight. Very upset about this - especially re Iberia, as much of my travel with Papito is on this carrier between Madrid and New York/Miami.</span> <span style="font-weight: 400;">But under the seat he goes. :/</span></p>

<p>There are moments in the history of any great company which mark an epoch, which establish a "before" and "after" - true turning points. For <strong>Iberia Airlines</strong>, the arrival of its first <strong>Airbus A-300</strong> in 1981 was one: a close relationship began that would lead to significant synergies and a great standardization of our fleet. And it's this year that the relationship of Iberia with the European aerospace consortium <a rel="nofollow noopener" href="https://www.airbus.com/" target="_blank"><strong>Airbus Industrie</strong></a> relationship turns 40.</p>

<p><br/> <br/> <br/> Following up on <a rel="nofollow noopener" href="https://www.tripatini.com/profiles/blogs/airlines-aviation-inflight-turbulence-fear-of-flying" target="_blank">a recent post I wrote about air turbulence</a>, let me note that pilots who conduct <strong>fear-of-flying</strong> courses are fond of saying “knowledge is power”. Most insist that if passengers understand how safe flying is, they will not be afraid. It’s not that simple, however. Intellectual understanding does not translate directly into emotional security.<span id="more-6846"></span></p>
<p><br/> Knowledge that a plane is safe in turbulence does not prevent an automatic emotional reaction. Regardless of what a person knows, stress hormones are released each time the plane drops, building up and produce an increase in heart rate, breathing rate, and tension in the body. These physical sensations – sensations strongly associated with danger – make it difficult to maintain a sense that the plane is safe.</p>

<p></p>
<p>That's why I am thinking to invest in airline stocks because right now their prices are not much high but could surge in upcoming months. In this regard, I have read stock investment beginners' guide related <a href="https://www.amakella.com/stock-market-basics-learn-how-to-invest-in-stocks/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">books like this one</a>, but I think I should get some advice from travel experts and communities. I am here to know the vibe among travel companies, airline industry experts, and tour agents about airline stock investments.<br/><br/>Similarly, it would also be great if you share more travel related industries for stock investment. </p>
