Heavenly Father,

As I prepare to board this flight, I place my journey in Your hands.

Calm my mind, ease any fear, and fill me with peace that surpasses all understanding.

Watch over this plane, the pilots, the flight attendants and every passenger onboard. Also watch over every other person in the air today.

In Your name, I trust this journey.

Amen.
