The cabin pressure would cause breathing difficulties.
Listen to the Dr and try to cancel and re book another time.

    So… you’re expecting our advice to trump that of his doctors? If his doctor said it is ill advised to travel to there then that’s what he means, and there is a reason for it!

  3. Of course don’t go. Gezz, that advice is from his doctor and no one on this site is better qualified. Even if there are MDs at this site, they haven’t examined him. So go with his doctor’s advice.
