COPD and travelling by plane

ive never yet been in a plane but was thinking about it next year but not sure if ill be save with having C O P D 

hi . i fly quite often and have no problems   ..but i think people who have to use medical equipment,need to pay a lot more for their fares...ie oxygen etc     

Hi All,

I travel twice a year on a plane, using wheelchair assistance and that's because i find the walk to Passport control and physically walking up the plane steps to much to cope with. Other than than i feel happy not to have to use oxygen. Also i believe different Airline have different policies on the use of oxygen. Thank you for reading this message.

I would think different airlines probably have different policies about travelling with oxygen appliances. Best to check with the airline you are thinking of travelling with just to make sure.

I fly with copd ,I take my mobility scooter and a portable nebuliser ,never had any problems .insurance is sometimes higher than the fare ,that's the only thing xxx

Your doctor will advise you as to whether you need oxygen for flying or not, and if so will provide you with a letter which you will need to have showing how much you need on the flight. I have flown with both Monarch and Easyjet who will allow you to take your own cylinders (can take up to 2) at no charge. Other airlines can provide oxygen but will charge you each way.

Hope this helps you

Hi my name is Rachel and I would like to know what kind portable nebuliser you using,there a few on the internet but I'm not sure if they're reliable and good enough to do the job.

Would appreciate any advice

Thanks
