I think you'll need a letter from your specialist Hopeymon. Airlines often need proof of your fitness to fly. Also they vary in how they provide the O2, some allow you to take on your own oxygen, some don't. Some still charge, especially the cost cutting ones, some don't. This BLF link gives you some idea.

Great. Don't forget to take some antiseptic hand gel or wipes with you will you, don't want to catch anything. Wipe all the equipment before use plus back of chairs. A good group will supply them but most don't due to cost. P

That is great about that you can fly plus getting into rehab.

I'm going to be assessed for PR next week, no idea what to expect but I'm looking forward to it - just hope I'll be 'approved' and that the waiting list isn't too long. Good luck with your classes. The tip from peege sounds good.

You will enjoy PR I have been on 3 courses since dx in 2006. And at the moment I am attending a follow up cardio exercise course I was refered to it after I finished my last PR course 6 month ago. Although l am breathless all the time while doing it. It will help my lungs and my arthritis. Take care xx

I hope you have more luck than I did at your pulmonary rehab course, i have done 3 of them the first one was ok the second was so far from the nearest car park i could not physically walk that far the third was a real experience i felt depressed going in and suicidal when I came out.
