I understand that if I am issued a fitness to fly letter, I am flying at my own risk. I acknowledge that if there are any undisclosed changes or inaccuracies in the information I have provided, my Partner Practitioner is not responsible for any complications that may arise during or after the flight. If I become aware of any changes that may increase my risk of flying, I understand that I will no longer be fit to fly and should refrain from doing so.
As per NHS guidance, I am advised to drink plenty of water, move regularly during the flight (every 30-45 minutes), and wear graduated compression stockings. I have also been advised against flying to areas with a risk of Zika virus or malaria and to update my regular doctor and Partner Practitioner if anything changes with my pregnancy.
I confirm that I will take precautions to reduce the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE), including staying hydrated, moving regularly, performing calf exercises, and taking any prescribed medications to prevent blood clots.
