My husband explains the noises and such to me and it is comforting to know it's normal. I don't like take off and landing but the rest of the flight I am just fine.


I hadn't even thought about the subs that way...yet...ummm, I'll have to think about that.

I'm sorry to have put that in your head.

Just remember, it is Disneyland, they have plenty of air. Heck, they take people off of Indiana Jones, they can get us out of the subs.

Right???

Just put your face up to the window and suck up that air. LOL

I went in a sub up at OMSI and was just fine but somehow I think the Disney subs are a little smaller. I was fine with the Disney subs as a child but then again I took up less oxygen then;)

They would have to have an evacuation plan or at least surface and give you air! It wouldn't look good to suffocate your guests:D

I don't know what OMSI is but I have heard that you can go on subs out on the coast of CA? Like maybe in Morro Bay or something like that?

Perhaps it being bigger would help but the thought of being under the water....

I've thought of hot air balloons. I would definitely have to understand the mechanics of it. Like your husband explaining the airplane sounds?

OMSI is the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry. The sub does not move by the way, it just sits there on the river anchored to the shore and dock. I didn't want to lay in the bunk though, I don't know how sailors did that, not that they're much bigger now!

I figure at Disney we aren't that far under water and I should survive if something happened, at least. I don't want to be that deep under water. My husband thought the under water hotel looked cool. I told him to have a good time and send me pics! He also suggested sky diving but I love him anyway! Although now he has the kid talking about jumping out of a perfectly good airplane too!

I couldn't go up in a hot air balloon, no way no how. Well maybe if it's tethered to the ground but not in the sky. I find the little basket much more terrifying than the big plane!

I've actually been in little bush planes but it wasn't enjoyable but I trusted the pilot to keep me safe!

Oh, okay, that sounds do able with the knowledge that it wouldn't move or submerge!!

LOL Yeah, you mentioned 'the basket' and I went WTH was I thinking?? I think it would be a nice place to take pictures from but I can also enjoy other peoples' photos as well.

And I agree, why jump out of a perfectly good plane? :snap:

Haven't there been stories of people on those little commuter planes freaking out the whole ride but there isn't anything they can about it just to finish the flight? How annoying/scary for the other passengers. {I don't remember where I heard this but I know I have...at least once, maybe more...}

I wanted to thank everyone for posting all week, I really do appreciate the openness and honesty.

And especially the humor!!! :D

It can be mind over matter but it is nice to know that I am not the only one who has those strange little thoughts....:blush:

Only the little puddlejumpers fly out of our local airport to connect to big planes in Chicago or Minneapolis. These are planes you can't stand up in - I call them flying pencils, they're that dinky.

Now, match those with the harsh weather we often have in Wisconsin and you've got yourself a bumpy ride on a dinky plane. There is only one way to deal with it (besides just driving to Chicago or Minneapolis to catch the big jet): imagine you're riding in Indy's Jeep over a rough road.
