I would recommend chartering a private aircraft if you are that concerned, and that well financed. . .

Flight uk to italy? lol i wouldnt worry about it. I mean how many terrorist attacks do you hear that is succesfful on blowing up planes or whatever? not alot.... sure theres few attemps but security is so high now and it really is nothink to worry bout it because noone can really panic about a terrorist attack happening unless your going to a unsafe country then yes its alright be alittle wary. But really you will be fine , your going to Italy its beautiful country. I went to andalo a skiing resort there and iI absoutely loved it :) So dont worry and also BMI is the best airline i travel with so i would recommend them. Flying by plane is actually the safest way to travel. Look it up and just enjoy your holiday :) Goodluck

I'm still scarred from the 9/11 attacks so you have good reasons to be scared considering you have only flown once before. Just try to make fun out of your flight and trust that security will have caught any people that would do these terrible things

A terrorist usually will try to target a larger aircraft where they can do maximum damage. The aircraft used to fly between the UK and Italy most likely will not be large enough to make it seem worthwhile to carry out such an attack.

how many times have u heard of a terrorist that got on a plane. they normally catch them before the plane going through security. also the ones that get up in the sky don't even normally work. Like the guy with the bomb in the shoe. and keep in mind that there arn't very many terrorist attacks on a plane

Aviation is the safest means of transportation. Statistically speaking, your train is more likely to derail or be attacked by terrorists than your plane crash or be brought down by terrorists.



The major airlines are still significantly safer than private jets; the major airlines are most strictly regulated by the FAA (or the European equivalent), even more than private/charter jets. Hijackings are so incredibly rare, it is almost not even worth it to consider those.

Just make sure there aren't any Kennedy family members or officials from successful countries which aren't completely submitting to the current "new world order" such as pakistan or venezuela.



Additionally, plane flights are still the safest way to travel.

Dont worry, u will be just fine, i fly all the time. The likely hood of something like 9/11 to happen again is not likely at all, you will be ok. I dont like flying eather but not for terrorism, for the actual feeling of flying
