My first ever flight was when I was 16. I flew to Mallorca with my brother and my Dad. At this time smoking in the back of the Airplane was still allowed. Today you´re not even allowed to sneeze! 😂

From that Day on I was still counting my flights. Today I´ve lost track, must have been nearly a hundred flights.

It was kinda my first and last time (first time was when i was 3, and i only got flashes of it when i got in the plane this time)

It was in August last year, and i flu to Switzerland to visit my cousin. It was fun.

i almost got 2 in the row last year, but there were no flights to Corfu in September, so we ended up going by car. 

you could check part of the story if you click on the photo.

Soon after my 18th birthday on Friday the 13th to London :)

Říjen 2008, Tunis - Djerba, let z Prahy. Pěkný zážitek.

My first flight happened in 1999. I left CZ for the summer job in the US and I have flown with Brittish Airways from Prag to Tampa, FL with stopover in London. At my return I have one more flight from Biloxi, MS to Tampa with with stopover in Atlanta, GE. At the airport in Tampa I realized that I was missing my flying ticket. There was a danger that I would have to buy a new one for $1.200, because the clerck at the check-in-desk couldn't find an information about my overbooking for the flight. Finally she has showed mercy and printed me a new ticket for $70 fee. 
All the flies were perfect but from my return I have never flown again. 

Mine was a bit boring but nonetheless my first flight. A 1 hour journey from Nantes in France to London UK. I was on my way to start a work placement and this trip is what  defined how my life was gonna go from there.

Namaste 🙏 
To everyone and thanks to @phortun for the great initiatives he’s doing.

My first flight ✈️ was back in 2012 from Bulgaria, Sofia to London not sure which airport there, maybe JFK where EasyJet drops off.

Any how that was my first trip leaving the country I was going to UK 🇬🇧 for a raspberry picking season working in a farm.
Actually it was a great experience.
I was so happy the time being there.
I actually did 3 summers in a roll.
Daily picking, night Beer 🍻 and gambling mostly poker ♥️
So can’t complain at all those my teenager years in my 22 to 25 ;)
So fun was good ;) 

Also when you think about it many people are forced to go work after graduation without any time to enjoy life and maybe do something that they may really like, discover a musician inside you, see the beauty of nature around your born place there are so many beautiful places all over around us if we had the time to go there and enjoy it...

I’ll challenge some of my friends to share their first flight here with us(please leave it as a comment to the main post not as a reply to this comment):

My first flight was when i was 5 years old when my parents decided to visit there home country of Italy flying from Sydney , Australia with parents and another 5 brothers and one sister so 7 kids and parents was a handful of a trip for my parents , i do remember we were all excited to be flying in these big birds but the trip took for ever with a couple of stop overs in airports that were so hot in them days 40 years ago , i think air conditioners in airports were not a priority , we were in a Asia country as one of our stop overs and i thought, i was on a alien planet with the different sound of the language and the funny looking Asia faces it was freaking me out a bit well , i was only 5 years old but my beautiful mum calm me down and explain to me that we were on a safe planet and that it was just a big cartoon show so , i sat down calmly and enjoyed the cartoon show immensely 😂

My first flight was from New-Brunswick to Alberta (both in Canada) when I was 21 or 22 with a stop in Toronto to take a bigger plane from a turbo prop.   I didn't like it, my feet belong on the ground! I have flown since but I do my best to avoid it, it still freaks me out.

Hi @phortun! My first flight was in March 2018 from Buenos Aires to Mendoza, two provinces of Argentina! 1050 km away from each other. That day I was really excited, with a mixture of fear and adrenaline: my first trip by plane and alone! I went on a week-long study trip. The images that I saw from the sky were so beautiful that I still have them engraved in my mind, I still can't believe that my eyes have seen that !! When I came back it was night, so I saw the day and night sky. It was really wonderful!

Hi @phortun. I appreciate that you create this post so I can share now my first flight interesting memory. Thank you in advance.
Actually my first flight was domestic flight from Dhaka(Bangladesh) to cox's bazar. It was really very memorable for me because it was our first tour after my marriage. And that was fifth day of my marriage. So you can call it a honeymoon. 
Though it was very short day trip. It might taken 25 minutes to land over. I was very scared before this flight. Specially scared to think,'if anything happens when we are at sea'? Trust me, when we were at sea I just forgotten all the fears because the view from plane was really awesome. But I felt scared when its being ups and down sometimes. Overall it was interesting for me that was the first and last flight trip still now. 
Hope you like it🙂🙂

Ha! I recall like it was yesterday. It was back in 2014, i was sent out to take a training near London. Had never been at the airport before, but in the end it was piece of cake (especially when you take the flight from Ostrava) 😆

Let me take you to a half world tour 😆
My first flight was a domestic and connecting international flight 
Bangalore to Pune ( in India ) to Abu Dhabi to Rome to Atlanta = 36 hrs of flight experience. Luckily no flight was delayed or cancelled. Else I would have written the response for worst flight experience 

It was my company provided flight with no option and I had to travel 😆

You're welcome @phortun! Thank you very much for the mention :)

First flight was when I was 6 years old and I remember me and my little brother of 2 years old getting a very official-looking pin from the airline we used (our national KLM). It was blue with silvery letters and I know I never threw it away so I'll find it during a cleaning-up at some point in the future :-) I think I liked it, just was worries because my brother was crying - his ears hurt from the air cabin pressure. Ah, we went from The NLs to France for a holiday :-)

Hi @phortun :) My memories a bit vague, but I am pretty sure that my first real flight was when I went to Wisconsin USA for my first Work and Travel experience. I was 19 years old and honestly did not know what I was doing. A friend of mine told me that he went there and made good money, learnt the language, and got to visit places like Las Vegas, the Niagara Falls, and Hollywood and I thought that this was the bomb. I definitely wanted to do it instead of staying home and doing nothing for the summer. So I managed to get all my exams in Technical University Sofia earlier than everyone else, got my VISA and went there from June to October. It was hot as hell although we were close to the border with Canada. I worked 13 hours a day no day offs as a waiter and made quite good money on tips. I also had time to work out as we lived in a house with a gym inside. Crazy times. I rode a four wheeler on the road when it is only allowed to do it in designated places inside the Forrest. I almost got a girlfriend who was 15 and I could have gotten in jail. One time a guy gave me drugs to keep and transport them to his car. He just placed them in my pocket and told me what to do. On my way to his car got caught by my manager and was almost fired. Ate too much fast food that I went to the Emergency room for help and got a bill of 1500 dollars for 1 hour visit and prescription of 2 medicaments for stomach acid. Dont even get me started on my Las Vegas trip and the hookers and the limos. Man I don't want to saturate your feed 😄😄 with too much content. My final thoughts are, I was young I was inexperienced and I tried it all. No thoughts no regrets. Pure ignorance. Now when I go back I definitely think I was crazy as f... But the flight itself was good considering I changed 3 planes for 1 trip and 3 for the return. It was Sofia - Heathrow - Heathrow - New York - New York - Duluth (Minesota). The last one was local with a small plane. Horrible experience. Turbulence all of the time. I was praying all the time to land alive. Then with a car to Iron River in Wisconsin. I managed :)
