Can you fly with pulmonary hypertension?
You can usually fly with PH, as long as a doctor or specialist has given you a letter stating you’re fit to fly. You may need supplemental oxygen to help you breathe during the flight, so let the airline know well in advance. You’ll also need travel insurance for your trip, to bring all your medication with you, and wear compression stockings, to help prevent deep vein thrombosis (DVT).
