Planning to travel after recovering from an illness or injury? At Doctor Greece, your health and safety are our top priorities. Many airlines now require a fit-to-fly certificate—a specialized document that confirms you’re medically cleared to travel. This certificate not only helps prevent potential health emergencies during your flight but also ensures the comfort and well-being of all passengers and crew.

When Is a Fit-to-Fly Certificate Necessary?

A fit-to-fly certificate might be required in several scenarios:

• Postponed Travel Due to Illness or Injury:
  If you’ve delayed your trip because of a recent health issue, you may need to obtain medical clearance before flying.

• Previous In-Flight Health Concerns:
  Experiencing health issues on a prior flight could prompt airlines to ask for a new clearance to ensure it won’t recur.

• Visible Medical Conditions:
  If you rely on mobility aids—such as crutches, casts, or wheelchairs—a doctor’s note confirming your ability to travel safely is often required.

This documentation is crucial for minimizing the risk of in-flight complications and avoiding any disruption that might affect fellow travelers.
