SYDNEY (Reuters) - People scared of flying can now press a button on their iPhone to help them deal with their panic. Long-haul airline Virgin Atlantic Airways has launched an application, or app, for its Flying Without Fear course which boasts a success rate of over 98 percent.
The airline said in a statement that this app was designed to help people overcome fear, be it of the unfamiliar aircraft, the strange noises a plane makes, or of losing control.
"Our first iPhone app will bring the benefits of our successful Flying Without Fear course to millions of people around the world," Richard Branson, president of Virgin Atlantic, said in a statement.
"The app will put many travelers at ease and enable them to prepare for their first Virgin Atlantic flight."
The Flying Without Fear app has an introduction by Branson, a video-based in-flight explanation of a flight, frequently asked questions, relaxation exercises and a fear attack button for emergencies with breathing exercises.
