flying all by myself
I'm going to SAI's national convention July 31-August 4. I'm the chapter delegate, and going all by myself...and I am SOOOOO scared!! I'm flying from Memphis. Just the thought of a big, confusing airport gives me a panic attack (I have a fear of getting lost, and I have generalized anxiety disorder so I worry a lot). Are airports that hard to navigate? What do you do once you get to the airport? I've been told to get there 2 hours before your flight. Is this enough time? Also, Is it easy to have your luggage get lost/stolen? How easy?
The last time I was on a plane was when I was like 4, so I don't remember it at all. Airports just seem like they would be so confusing and hard to figure out where to go and what to do.
Please, someone calm my fears, tell me what to expect, just anything. I'm so excited about the convention and about flying...it's not the flying part I'm afraid of, but the airport (isn't that silly?). Heeelp!
