Just tell him about your phobia. On the other hand, Xanax will help.

There are people who specialise in treating this problem; see your doctor and ask for a referral to one. Statistically, it is the safest form of travel. You may be avoiding a situation where you have no control. Visit: www.relax7.com/7.php and try the easily learned techniques in the blogs of Shan Eris on "tackling depression" at www.myspace.com and then type "fear", "fear of flying" and "anxiety" separately in the bar near the top of the myspace homepage. By learning how to find your centre of consciousness, you may be able to use the technique almost immediately to fly, because that part of your mind that wants you to be in control, will not be actively functioning at the time. Try it on a short local flight first, and SOON, if you can do it, you won't need therapy or excuses.

Three are other alternatives of travel. Just give him a signed note from your Doctor or Psychiatist stating you are afraid of heights. He may not believe you if you just walk up and tell him iwthout a signed documents, as I know someone who goes through the same issues. IF he still wants you to do it or you want to do it, Trains are great alternatives for domestic business travel.

I'm like you. I am afraid to fly although I've done so on many occasions. You should be honest with him/her. My question to you however is why did you bother to apply for this particular position, knowing the likelihood of air travel? At any rate, if you have to fly, then you have to fly or end up losing your job. Either he can find someone else to replace you (in-house) while you keep your job or you'll be given your walking papers. You simply need to be honest with your boss and tell him/her the truth about your fear of flying. Nothing to be ashamed about. There are many people who have this fear. It's difficult.

I'm not much good at coming up with excuses, but I have to say that telling him the truth might be your best option. All sorts of people have phobias, so if you tell him you will try to overcome your fear gradually if he'll lay off you for the moment, he might respect you for your honesty and excuse you from those expectations.
