If you're like me and love to travel, but get such bad airport and flying anxiety (or you just get bored and want a distraction on the flight), I have rounded up the most perfect movies and shows that can help pass the time, in a comfortable way.
These are movies that I personally find very comforting, as well as engaging, that really also help to distract your mind. While the movies may feel and seem a bit random I have hand-picked and taken my time to come up with movies and shows that are both comforting (such as all the Scooby-Doo movies and shows), as well as completely engaging to distract you on a flight. As we all know, traveling, in general, can be very stressful and if you don't get some form of travel anxiety, relish in it! Because that is amazing. I like to ensure that I have movies and shows downloaded for the flight (more than the number of hours on the flight itself haha), as well as games and books. While I will make a separate post for you to reference with good books that you can download free on the Kindle, as well as free game apps that are distracting, this post will go through and list all my recommended movies and tv shows.
Also, just a quick note, I find what also helps before traveling is to watch an episode or two of a show, or read a few chapters of a book, so that way you start to get into the plot, and then when you travel you will be invested in whatever show you are watching, or whatever book you are reading. Then, you will be able to distract your mind from any stress that may arise.
