Medical Certificate
Flying can be a strain on the body. For some conditions, you must bring a certificate stating that you are fit to fly. Please bring a medical certificate if you:
- Have recently been ill or hospitalised and/or have a medically unstable condition
- Require extra oxygen or need to use medical equipment (read more below)
- Are in the final stage of pregnancy
If the staff consider that you are too ill to travel, you may be denied boarding.
Medication
You should always carry essential medication with you in your hand luggage. It should not be sent in checked baggage.
We recommend that you carry a prescription for the medication you are carrying and, if possible, that it is in its original packaging.
Cabin crew cannot give you medication or store your medication for you.
Oxygen
If you require oxygen on board, you must bring it with you. You must book your ticket at least 48 hours before departure, specifying this under the "Passenger with special needs" field in the booking.
- Liquid oxygen is strictly prohibited on board the aircraft
- Each passenger may bring more than one cylinder as long as this is within the usual hand luggage requirements (55 x 40 x 20 cm)
- Each cylinder must not exceed 5 kg gross weight and a maximum pressure of 200 bar
- Oxygen for use on board can be brought in addition to hand luggage at no extra cost
Please inform our gate staff and cabin crew that you are travelling with oxygen.
Medical equipment
You must declare that you are carrying a respirator, ventilator, POC or CPAP device at the airport.
If you need to use the equipment on board, you may be required to present a medical certificate confirming that you are fit to fly.
It is permitted to carry medical equipment on board, provided it is necessary for your journey.
