Travis Barker admitted that he almost did not fly to New Orleans this weekend after two recent airline disasters. Barker survived a deadly plane crash in 2008.
The musician, who was seriously injured in the incident, has battled PTSD and flew in a plane for the first time since the crash in 2021 after initially vowing never to board a plane again. "It just gets harder and harder. Especially when your biggest fears, like, you start to see them come to life in reality." Ashley Hume is an entertainment writer for Fox News Digital.

During an interview with Fox News Digital, Barker admitted that he hesitated over taking the trip to New Orleans this weekend, when he hosted his Run Travis Run event on Friday ahead of his performance at FanDuel x Spotify Super Bowl Party. He said that he was shaken by the two plane crashes that shocked the world just over a week ago.
