I have a mild fear of flying, I don't avoid it but I do feel anxious on the flight especially if we hit turbulence.
What's helped for me is imagining how many flights take of and land safely around the world each day. It's very very rare that a plane crashes, I don't know what the odds are but they're very small. There's a higher risk of being involved in an accident on the way to the airport.
Someone once told me that in order for a plane to crash 16 critical mistakes have to made in a row or something like that. Very unlikely.
It may help for you to watch or read information that details all of the safety that's done around flying so you'll feel more confident next time you fly.
Ultimately you can only concur your fear by facing it.
