Is there an age limit for the elderly to fly?

You can't. However, the elderly must show the health certificate issued by the hospital before boarding the plane.

Passengers over the age of 70 must provide a valid physical examination report issued by the hospital within half a year when purchasing tickets, or show a "health certificate" issued by a medical unit at or above the county level within 96 hours before the flight departure, and they are in good health. Only those who don't need special care are allowed to carry it.

People with cardiovascular diseases, such as hypertension, heart disease, cerebrovascular disease, respiratory disease, otolaryngology disease, etc., should not fly.
