Too anxious about booking abroad

*Foxglove*

I'm trying to book a 3 day trip to Iceland with Icelandair for August flying from Gatwick. I suffer with bad anxiety and haven't ever booked a holiday abroad. I've got as far as selecting the hotel, dates etc on the website but can't bring myself to click confirm.

One thing worrying me is I've put the booking is for 2 adults and a 10 year old and the hotel choices are for double rooms..do they provide a camp bed for the child?

HELP:o:o:o:o:o:o

What did the hotel say when you asked them? It may be a camp bed, or a pull out, they may have some rooms with additional beds.

Which hotel is it?

You need to ask the hotel about the third bed, its usually a sofa bed or camp bed, but only the hotel can answer your question.

If you cannot book it, maybe it might be best to get treatment for your anxiety rather than the stress of a holiday booking?

Visit a travel agent.

Are you booking "family rooms"? If you put the details as 2 adults and a child then the website should bring up "family rooms" that are suitable, and it should say what the additional bed is for the child.

then I turn on the news and hear of explosions at airports:(:(:(:(

You've done well *Foxglove*

The first time I booked a holiday to Egypt the place got bombed, the second time I tried Turkey & similar happened. In fact everywhere I book there always appears to be something or other going on, or has gone on, whether it be the Tsunami in Sri Lanka, or the earthquake in Nepal ....

I think it's a normal-ish thing to fear the worst once you've booked, due to the excitement of the unknown. Just go & enjoy yourself, you'll be fine
