Maternity or antenatal notes are documents that track the progress of your pregnancy. They include information from recent appointments with your midwife or doctor.
In the UK, maternity notes are often provided as either a handwritten booklet or in a digital format. If you’re unsure how to access them, get in touch with your midwife, who can guide you on where to find your notes.
We need you to upload the most recent pages from your maternity notes for our doctors to review. This helps them confirm that you are safe to fly and suitable for a pregnancy fit to fly letter.

A fit to fly certificate for pregnancy is a document that confirms you and your baby are safe to travel by air. This letter verifies a medical professional has assessed your pregnancy for air travel.

It can be disappointing to hear you’re ineligible to travel if you’ve been looking forward to your trip. At Wilmer Health, your safety, and your baby’s, comes first. If we determine that you don’t qualify for a fit to fly note due to a complicated pregnancy, we’ll offer a full refund.
Otherwise, we can also provide a Not Fit to Fly Certificate. This certificate supports flight cancellations, rescheduling, refunds, or travel insurance claims.
Most airlines will want a fit to fly letter signed within two weeks of your date of departure. But, it’s essential to check your airline’s policy, as their requirements may vary.
Many NHS GPs and midwives don’t provide pregnancy fit to fly documents. This is because of service pressures, lack of appointment availability and insurance restrictions. Additionally, wait times can often be long, typically a few weeks at the earliest.
The alternative is to get a private fit to fly certificate through an online service. At Wilmer Health, we issue globally-accepted certificates within just a matter of hours. Saving you time, money and a whole lot of stress!
