My doctors surgery are being really unhelpful with a fit to fly letter request. Midwife appointment last Friday - she gave all clear to go but said the GP would have to do the letter, long haul destination for a week (10 hr flight) just advised flight socks. I'll be 30 weeks on way out, 31 on way back.
GP surgery receptionist has now rang to say that the doctor needs to see me before they'll issue the letter, but they don't need to physically examine me Looking at my notes is apparently not enough. Problem is there's no appointments before I fly.
Flying with KLM whose policy for pg women is just that 36 weeks is the cut off and if there's complications, a fit to fly cert. Guy on the KLM helpline has said that having the fit to fly is advisable but not compulsory. I've had no complications. WIBU to go without a fit to fly cert and hope for the best? What is the worst that can happen?
