Flight health certificate for the elderly.
Older people over 70 need to provide health certificates when flying. Old people should be cautious when traveling by plane-what kind of old people are not suitable for flying? What preparations should I make before going out? Let's take a look now and let the family worry less. Old people need to prepare health certificates when flying. As long as the family members think that the elderly are healthy, they can be arranged to board the plane. However, the elderly can only board the plane if they show the health certificate issued by the hospital. Passengers over the age of 70 must provide a valid physical examination report issued by the hospital within six months (including cardiovascular and respiratory items and other special care that needs to be provided), or show a health certificate issued by a medical unit at or above the county level within 96 hours before the flight takes off. They are healthy and do not need special care. In addition, airlines have different regulations for the elderly to fly. Please contact the carrier airline before booking the air ticket, and then book the air ticket after confirmation to avoid unnecessary trouble. Which old people are not suitable for flying? Generally speaking, elderly people who are healthy and have no obvious damage to heart function can fly completely. Because flying is fast, smooth and comfortable, flying should also be the first choice for elderly passengers to travel long distances. Elderly people with poor physical condition should make choices according to their own physical condition or follow the doctor's advice. For example, elderly people with cardiovascular diseases are usually not suitable for flying-for elderly people with severe hypertension and heart disease, changes in atmospheric pressure may lead to increased blood pressure, decreased cardiac output, difficulty breathing, and even life-threatening consequences; Due to the roar, vibration and lack of oxygen when the plane takes off and lands, patients with cerebrovascular diseases may relapse or aggravate their condition. In addition, elderly people with respiratory diseases, otolaryngology diseases and people who have just had surgery should not fly. What preparations should the elderly make before flying? Some old people are old, because they are far away from their registered permanent residence, so they can't apply for identity cards. They only have household registration books, old-age certificates and other documents. How do they fly? The answer is that these elderly people should go to the public security organ where their household registration is located or the public security organ where their ID cards are issued to issue household registration certificates, and go to the police workstation of the airport police station to apply for temporary flight certificates. Before preparing for the flight, elderly passengers should travel lightly and simply, and check their belongings as much as possible, but their belongings should be equipped with first-aid medicines to avoid accidents. In addition, stress and fatigue can lead to hypoglycemia in some elderly people. Eating a few sweets can relieve tension and prevent hypoglycemia. When flying, it is best to get up and exercise every 1-2 hours, which is especially important for the elderly with venous thrombosis. If the elderly fly alone, they should also write down the pick-up and drop-off telephone number on paper, so that the elderly can carry it with them so that the airport service personnel can contact in time in case of an accident. What services can the elderly enjoy by plane? Some airlines have launched "Love Channel" and "Intimate Service". In general, priority is given to the elderly, and special services are provided for passengers who have mobility difficulties and even have to use equipment to take flights. For example, to provide wheelchairs, you can call the ticket office to book tickets first, and the salesperson will reserve seats for them and make an appointment for the time and place to deliver the tickets. After the delivery personnel accompany the elderly to the airport safely, they will make a good handover with the ground service personnel.
