Just a month before, Barker had expressed his determination to overcome his fear in an interview with Men’s Health. He stated, “I have to. I want to make the decision to try and conquer it.”
In 2008, Barker was involved in a plane crash that had tragic consequences. The accident resulted in third-degree burns covering 65 percent of his body and claimed the lives of four people, including both pilots and his friends Charles ‘Che’ Still and Chris Baker.
Surviving the crash alongside Barker was the late DJ AM. Unfortunately, DJ AM later succumbed to an overdose a year after the incident.

Publicly expressing his aversion to flying, Barker adamantly refused to perform at any shows that required air travel, thanks to his luxury RV that allowed him to travel comfortably by road. Reflecting on his crash experience, he referred to it as his personal “rehab,” as it served as a turning point that enabled him to conquer his addiction to opioids and prescription drugs. “If it wasn’t for the crash, I probably would have never found the strength to quit,” he candidly admitted.
On August 14, overcoming his fear of flying, Barker embarked on his first flight accompanied by Kourtney, her mother Kris Jenner, and her partner Corey Gamble, jetting off to Mexico. Capturing a tender moment, Barker shared a photograph of him and Kourtney sharing a kiss right outside Air Kylie, expressing his belief that anything is possible when they are together.
