Epilepsy is more alarming for onlookers than for the affected passenger. Stable epileptics may be accepted.

questions, answers and actions:

1. How many fits do you have in the average year?

  • More than two – Certificate of Fitness to Fly required and proceed to next question
  • Two or less – Accept, but still proceed to next question 

2. Will someone who knows about epilepsy accompany you?

  • Yes or No – Ensure that the Captain and Flight Supervisor are informed that there is an epileptic passenger travelling.  This is done by the reservations helpdesk who inform our crewing department.
