Fear of flying class in New York metro area?

February 17, 2009 8:05 AM

Is there a fear of flying class that operates out of LaGuardia, Kennedy or Newark airports (or someplace nearby?) I'm ideally looking for a class that involves taking a short "graduation" flight to somewhere like Boston or Washington.

Searching finds Fly Without Fear, though I don't see much recent information or a website.

About every eight weeks the program also offers a conditioning flight, either a ferry run from La Guardia to Kennedy or a shuttle to Boston or Washington and back.

Yes, I saw the NY Times article, but the phone number for the class based out of LaGuardia no longer works. I'm assuming the class is defunct.

Ah, sorry. Might still be worth emailing Carol in case she knows of an extant class.

Here's a more recent NYT article, though it lacks contact information for the class; it may actually be referring to this program which is now being held at the Westchester County Airport, and concludes with a flight to Boston.
