Travis hasn’t been able to set foot on an airplane following the deadly plane crash in 2008 in South Carolina in which he was one of only two survivors

The plane crash happened on September 19, 2008 – Travis boarded a private jet in South Carolina to head back to Los Angeles following a show, while accompanied by his friend Adam ‘DJ AM’ Goldstein, his security guard Charles ‘Che’ Still, and his assistant Chris Baker.

Fiery crash: The pilot, Sarah Lemmon, and the co-pilot, James Bland, were 𝓀𝒾𝓁𝓁ed within minutes from smoke inhalation and burns as the plane erupted into flames on impact in Columbia, South Carolina. Security guard Charles ‘Che’ Still and assistant Chris Baker were also 𝓀𝒾𝓁𝓁ed on impact – seen in 2008

He’s not alone: Prior to boarding the plane, he and Kourtney embraced, and then she held his hands as they walked up their stairs

As the small plane was attempting to take off, one of its tires suffered a blow out, causing the craft to overshoot the runway, burst through the airport’s fence and over the nearby highway, and finally crash into the embankment on the side of the road.

The pilot, Sarah Lemmon, and the co-pilot, James Bland, were 𝓀𝒾𝓁𝓁ed within minutes from smoke inhalation and burns as the plane erupted into flames on impact, according to the Chicago Tribune . Still and Baker were also 𝓀𝒾𝓁𝓁ed on impact.

Travis and Adam were able to escape from the burning plane via an emergency exit over the wing, but both were engulfed in flames as they slid down the wing and got covered in burning jet fuel.

The drummer had third-degree burns over 65 percent of his body and had to spend three months in the hospital while having skin grafts and 26 surgeries to repair the damage.

Luxurious: Barker was flying in style for his first trip back into the air in more than a decade.

Kylie’s jet: Kylie purchased the jet from Global Express before the start of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. The quasi-billionaire doesn’t just use it for her own purposes, but she regularly lets her sisters and mother travel on it across the globe

Kylie’s jet – which Travis and Kourtney travelled on was purchased from Global Express before the start of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. The quasi-billionaire doesn’t just use it for her own purposes, but she regularly lets her sisters and mother travel on it across the globe.

The jet cost her a whopping $72.8 million, and jets of its size cost around $5 million per year to operate, according to Page Six.

Kylie opted for a Global Express Jet, which is larger than a Learjet and can fly longer distances, but its increased size also means that it is too big to land at many private air fields.

‘People are always like, “Did you go to rehab?” he recounted. ‘And I [say], “No, I was in a plane crash.” That was my rehab. Lose three of your friends and almost die? That was my wake-up call. If I wasn’t in a crash, I would have probably never quit.’

Fear: ‘I was dark… I couldn’t walk down the street. If I saw a plane [in the sky], I was determined it was going to crash, and I just didn’t want to see it,’ he said

After the crash, Travis was overcome with a debilitating fear even at the sight of an airplane.

‘I was dark… I couldn’t walk down the street. If I saw a plane [in the sky], I was determined it was going to crash, and I just didn’t want to see it,’ he said, adding that he was ‘haunted’ by the experience of ‘being burned’ and ‘trying to grab my friends from a burning plane.’

But he also struck a more hopeful not now that nearly 13 years have passed since the crash.

‘Now it’s been so many years, it’s getting easier for me. There are days where I’ll wake up and never think about it,’ he said.

‘Survivors guilt’: In May, around when his interview was published, Travis got the phrase ‘Survivors guilt’ tattooed on his arms

The incident has certainly been on his mind recently, as last month he got the words ‘Survivors guilt’ tattooed on his forearms.

Travis may have some newfound confidence thanks to his girlfriend Kourtney Kardashian, who’s a noted flier and traveler.

She and the rest of the Kardashian–Jenner family regular travel across the globe on elite private jets, though she’s had to stay on the ground when traveling with her musician boyfriend due to his debilitating fear.

She regularly shares the highlights from her international trips to her Poosh lifestyle site, though her trips were curtailed amid the ongoing pandemic.

The reality star doesn’t appear to have any issues traveling by air, as evidenced by a 2019 Keeping Up With The Kardashians episode in which she gushed about how much she enjoyed traveling with her children now that they were getting older.

Since she’s taken countless private jet rides, she may be the perfect person to accompany Travis on a short flight.

She’s a pro: Kourtney likely helped give Travis renewed confidence, as she’s a regular flier and traveler

The drummer certainly wants to get back in the air, despite how terrifying the idea might be.

‘I have to,’ he said in his Men’s Health interview. ‘I want to make the choice to try and overcome it.’

The musician added that he yearns for the normal, everyday feeling of returning home from a plane trip.

‘If I do it, and the angels above help me in my travels and keep me safe, I would like to come back and [tell them], “Hey, I just flew here, and then I flew home. And everything was fine.” I have to tell them, because I almost left them,’ Travis said, adding, ‘That’s a perfect day.’
