Why Airlines Require Travel Certificates

Airlines and travel operators require medical certificates primarily for safety and liability reasons. Aircraft cabins are pressurised environments with reduced oxygen levels. Medical conditions, recent surgery, or pregnancy complications can pose risks during flight.

Travel medical certificates provide assurance from a qualified medical professional that you're fit to travel. All our medical certificates Surbiton meet international airline requirements.
