“买不到五一高铁票且恐飞”，一歌手宣布取消演唱会！

近日，一则演出取消通告引发讨论。

A planned China tour by Canadian R&B singer Haley Smalls has been abruptly cancelled, sparking debate on Chinese social media over the unusual reason given by organizers.

4月22日，@LuuvLabel（上海粉鹿文化传播有限公司）发布一则演出取消公告。公告称加拿大籍女歌手Haley Smalls原定于4月30日在北京举办的巡演，已确认取消。原因是五一高铁票难抢以及担忧飞行过多等。

据了解，歌手Haley Smalls是来自多伦多的独立R&B歌手，这是她的首次中国巡演。

演唱会主办方@LuuvLabel 4月17日发布的巡演信息显示，Haley Smalls的中国巡演安排为：4月30日北京、5月1日上海、5月3日深圳、5月4日广州，北京站为首站。

The independent artist from Toronto was set to kick off her first China tour in Beijing on April 30, followed by shows in Shanghai, Shenzhen and Guangzhou from May 1 to May 4. However, on Wednesday, Luuv Label, the promoter, announced that the Beijing stop, and possibly the entire tour, had been cancelled.

据上游新闻消息，主办方上海粉鹿文化传播有限公司工作人员表示，确认北京站演唱会已取消，原因是艺人没买到高铁票（担心影响接下来的行程），且她不愿意乘坐飞机——她本身恐飞。

According to a staff member cited by Upstream News, the cancellation was due to logistical issues. Smalls reportedly failed to secure high-speed rail tickets, citing concerns that train travel would disrupt her schedule, and also refused to fly because of a fear of flying.

“北京到上海本来是高铁，没买到票，而且她是欧美人，不太懂什么候补……上海到深圳原计划是坐飞机，她让我们取消，改乘7个半小时的高铁。”工作人员表示，国内其他站的演出行程Haley Smalls都要求改成了高铁，“我们也理解她的理由。”

主办方的这一取消理由，遭到部分乐迷的吐槽，“既然恐飞，为何当初筹备远距离演出？”

也有网友表示，对于“恐飞人”来说，飞行确实是挑战。

The explanation drew immediate pushback, with one netizen asking: "If she's afraid of flying, why plan a long-distance tour in the first place?" Others expressed sympathy, noting that aviophobia can be a genuine challenge for those who experience it.

aviophobia /ˌeiviəˈfoubiə/ 飞行恐惧症，恐飞症

《科技日报》此前曾发文科普“恐飞症”。河南医药大学第二附属医院睡眠医学科主治医师孙启蒙称，恐飞症指的是对乘坐飞机产生持续过度的恐惧，往往伴随心慌发抖等身体反应，甚至因此放弃飞行。

Science and Technology Daily has previously addressed the condition, citing Sun Qimeng, a physician at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Henan Medical University in Henan province. "Aviophobia refers to a persistent and excessive fear of flying, often accompanied by physical symptoms such as a racing heart and trembling, and in some cases leads sufferers to avoid flying altogether," Sun said.

不过，孙启蒙医生也提醒，恐飞不是绝症，很多人通过科学应对最终都能克服心理障碍，重新享受飞行的自由。

应对恐飞症，不妨试试这些方法

❶ 提前了解航空安全知识，增强信心；

❷ 尝试运用一些放松技巧，比如深呼吸，慢慢地吸气四秒，然后屏气四秒，然后呼气六秒，或者借助冥想音频来舒缓情绪；

❸ 通过听音乐、看电影等方式转移注意力；

❹ 如果恐飞已经严重影响到了生活，建议及时寻求心理帮助，别硬扛。

你害怕坐飞机吗？对此次事件，你怎么看？
