Well, just a follow up on my trip. Overall, it has gone very, very well. Currently I am in Uberlandia, Brazil until Wed. when I fly to Sao Paulo and then fly to Toronto and then finally home to St. Louis.
The flight from Buenos Aires to SP on the A320 was smooth as silk, same as the flight from SP to Uberlandia on 319. Both on TAM. So, I still have the flight back to CGH within Brazil.
Additionally, I thought and analyzed a lot about why all of a sudden I became afraid to fly. My wife and I just had a baby girl 13 months ago. I worried a lot about being away from home and I also miss my daughter terribly and feel I am missing out on so much. Plus, if something did happen she would be without a dad. But as I analyzed this more I realized it had nothing to do with flying but instead I was transferring my fears about being a good dad and not being there for her and my wife to a fear of flying. I was using flying as my outlet for my anxiety.
My what ifs are everyday concerns and things that could happen everyday. After traveling by car in Argentina which was real, real scary I realize that we test the line between life and death more than realized in some countries it is thinner than others.
I came to this conclusion a day or two prior to starting my travel and I rather enjoyed my flying experience, having very little anxiety. I am still not totally excited flying into CGH but not much can be done about it.
