During flights there can always happen something. The easiest stuff to handle is some turbulence. Nothing special. I had at least double your quantity of flight and even those on domestic flights in Russia and I will spare you those details. But as far as weather/atmosphere conditions are concerned the worst I had is landing in Montreal during a blizzard.

But just realize that flying is the safest way of transportation. You had 2 less nice experiences, so now it will be 3 times lucky! Just hop on the plane and relax. You're going to be fine.
