Article 14 of the current 2004 edition of China Civil Aviation Rules for the International Transport of Passengers and Baggage stipulates that seriously ill passengers should have a certificate issued by a medical unit suitable for the flight before purchasing tickets. This version is only for patients to fly, not for the elderly.
Each airline has its own regulations for people over 80 to fly:
China Eastern Airlines: It is recommended that the elderly under 80 should be accompanied by at least one adult when boarding the plane. Over 80 years old, not only need to be accompanied by an adult, but also need to apply for a diagnosis certificate in the local business hall, and then go to a third-class first-class hospital to issue a health certificate. If the certificate is not issued, the staff has the right to refuse the transportation according to the physical condition of the elderly. Otherwise, in the event of an accident, the airline will not bear any responsibility.
HNA: If the elderly are healthy and have no cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, they will generally go through the formalities as normal passengers. If you have cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, you must issue a certificate, otherwise the airline will not be responsible for the accident.
China Southern Airlines: As long as the elderly are healthy, have no cardiovascular diseases and can get on and off the plane freely, there is no need to issue a certificate. But if an accident happens because of the health of the elderly, the airline is not responsible.
Air China: There is no age limit for passengers. People over 70 years old do not need to provide medical certificates as long as they are in good health. However, in order to ensure the safety of travel, it is recommended to bring a health certificate issued within 96 hours before boarding. If there is an accident when boarding a plane with a certificate, the airline must bear certain responsibilities. Otherwise, the airline will not bear the responsibility.
Question 2: Are there any special rules for people over 60 to fly? If there are no serious mobility difficulties and language barriers, you can go through the boarding formalities directly and go through the unaccompanied formalities.
The accompanying elderly must be over 63 years old, but they can handle the guidance service of getting on and off the plane. So far, domestic flights.
They are all free services.
Question 3: What items do 70-80-year-old people need to check for physical examination by plane? Generally, the elderly need to be examined for acute diseases such as hypertension and heart disease before flying, as long as they have completed the examination in the hospital before flying and have a diagnosis certificate issued by the hospital that is suitable for flying.
Question 4: Do the elderly need a medical report when they fly after 70? Spring Airlines
Older people over 70 years old need to provide the flight certificate within 180 days or the hospitalization medical report issued by the hospital within 180 days before they can take the flight!
The report should include the results of ECG, heart rate, blood pressure and respiratory system examination (that is, chest X-ray). Take photos of these inspection reports and send them to the mailbox designated by the other party. Only after the airline is approved can the elderly buy tickets.
This is only stipulated by a few airlines, such as Air China, China Southern Airlines, China Eastern Airlines and Hainan Airlines. There is no such requirement, and companies such as Xiamen Airlines and Shandong Airlines have no special restrictions. However, some companies will emphasize that the premise of flying is that the elderly are healthy, and it is best to be accompanied by young people, but no specific health certificate is required.
Question 5: What medical certificate does a 70-year-old man need to write when flying? Respiratory ECG, heart rate, blood pressure (just asked the crew)
Question 6: Do the elderly need to prepare a health certificate when flying? Although the transport rules promulgated by the Civil Aviation Administration do not stipulate that the elderly need a "diagnosis certificate" from the hospital when they fly, some airlines say that as long as the family members think that the elderly are in good health, they can arrange for the elderly to board the plane, but the elderly must show the health certificate issued by the hospital before boarding the plane, which is the default "regulation" of more airlines. According to Sanya Bay Family Hotel, airlines stipulate that passengers over 70 years old should provide a valid medical report issued by the hospital within six months when purchasing tickets (including cardiovascular and respiratory projects and other special care that needs to be provided), or show their air tickets and boarding passes that have been taken within six months, and they are allowed to carry them after being reviewed by the airlines. In order to prevent the delay of the trip, you must arrange a medical examination as soon as possible before booking a plane ticket for the elderly. In addition, Sanya Bay Family Hotel reminds everyone that airlines have different regulations for the elderly to fly. If some airlines do not carry elderly people over 80, they should consult in advance before booking tickets. If the elderly have a recent flight record, they should also keep their air tickets and boarding passes for next use.
Question 7: The validity period of physical examination for people over 70 years old by plane. People over 70 years old need to provide health certificates when flying.
Passengers over 70 years old should 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) 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, which is healthy and does not require special care. Carriage is allowed only after being audited by the airline. 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.
