There is no bar on this really. As soon as you feel well enough so long as you have good travel insurance. I'd give it a couple of days or maybe a week if it were me. Stay well hydrated at all times and make sure you have meds with you at all times.
I'd give it a month after an ablation before you do this. It's not only the flight, it's all the walking around and getting from your car to the airport and then to the runway. Carrying cases, preparation etc.
Not what you're looking for?
