Fear of Flying Class in Phoenix

Captain Ron Nielsen has been helping people overcome their fear of flying in his live classes since 1987. The Cleared 4 Takeoff program in Phoenix has helped hundreds of fearful flyers feel better about flying.

Cleared 4 Takeoff Basic Class for Fear of Flying

CFT 101, the Basic Class, is a free two-hour class conducted in a classroom at Sky Harbor Airport. This is an introductory course to give the fearful flyer an overview of the fear process, learn coping strategies, and become educated about what fearful flyers fear most—takeoffs and turbulence. Capt. Ron believes that one of the first things fearful flyers need to do is share their story about their fear of flying. Fearful flyers come to this fear of flying class feeling alone in their fear, but after sharing what makes them afraid to fly, they begin to relax as they realize they’re not the only ones with a fear of flying.

This class is FREE, but you must be registered to attend.  Many fearful flyers find it helpful to bring along a flying coach–a spouse or a supportive friend–who will accompany the fearful flyer on a future flight. When you register yourself, list the coach’s name in the enrollment form.
