The "Stress-free flying" workshop includes:
- An interview with a flight stress specialist.
- A course to familiarize you with aircrafts.
- A session in a flight simulator
- Information to the crew on your next flight.

• An individual meeting with a stress specialist
  - Before the workshop, on the day of your choice, you will have a personal meeting with a stress specialist. Your relationship to flying will be analyzed, and a strategy to improve it will be laid out.
  - It is essential to determine the origin and nature of the anxiety that flying causes in you. Everyone feels some stress, but intensity and causes vary - the flight-stress specialist will help you understand your anxiety more clearly.
  
  
• A theoretical class on stress and aeronautics
  Each session will bring together four trainees, a flight-stress specialist, and a commercial pilot:
  - Isabelle David will outline the theory and basics of stress management.
  - The pilot will give you a basic introduction to aerodynamics and aeronautics.
  This is a privileged moment of encounter and exchange with flight professionals, as they take the time to listen to you, and help you overcome your fear of flying.
  
  
• A session in a flight simulator
  In a simulator, an exact replica of a real cockpit, you will be piloting an aircraft and managing a full range of in-flight conditions (turbulences, mechanical incidents, emergency procedures, etc.).
  This session will take place after the theoretical course, at the Air France Pilot Training Center in Paray/Orly, near Paris.
  
  
• Informing the crew
  After completing the workshop, recommendations will be made to the crew so that, whenever possible, you will receive a personalized welcome upon your next flight with Air France.

• This workshop is for all passengers wishing to finally fly stress-free.
• Workshops take place several times a month – each session lasting about seven hours – in the Air France Pilot Training Center in Paray/Orly, near Paris.

• The cost is 560 euros (the fees may be covered through an employer-paid training contract – certification number: 1175007 1791).
