健康飞行
我可以搭乘飞机吗？
Most people are fit to travel by air, but special attention is required for passengers whose health problems may be exacerbated by altitude, hypoxia, travel stress, manhandling luggage, changing climates and food, as well as other travel related difficulties.
All individuals who travel should ensure they are medically fit prior to embarking on air travel. We strongly suggest that you consult your own doctor or an aerospace medical specialist for advice before travel if you have any concerns or doubts about your fitness for travel.
Medical clearance to fly may be required when:
- your fitness to travel is in doubt as a result of recent illness, hospitalisation, injury or surgery
- you have an existing medical condition where there is reasonable doubt that you can complete the flight safely, without requiring extraordinary medical assistance during the flight e.g. breathing difficulties, unstable angina, terminal illness etc.
- you require special services such as oxygen or the use of medical equipment on board
Bear in mind that healthcare facilities in your destination country may not be as good as what you have at home, particularly in remote destinations or developing countries. It is better not to travel to such places if you are pregnant or have a medical condition that may require access at short notice to advanced healthcare facilities. If you are taking 'adventure holidays', make sure that adequate facilities are available if you are injured and need urgent treatment.
