A New App for People Afraid of Flying

The SkyGuru travel app was created to help people who suffer from a fear of flying. Rather than a distraction from flying, it's more of an educational device. One of the scariest things about flying can be not knowing what's actually going on. A sudden noise or movement can be frightening because it's unexpected. The SkyGuru travel app works by helping uncover what's really happening during your flight.

Before take-off, the app downloads your flight information and when it's put into airplane mode, it helps keep the passenger at ease by letting them know what's going on. The app also sends the passenger reassuring messages like, "Control yourself not the plane."
