Travelling with asthma

Having asthma shouldn't restrict you from travelling and enjoying holidays.

If you make the right preparations, you should be able to minimise any potential problems and have an enjoyable and safe trip.

There's always lots to prepare before you go on holiday. We've put together helpful checklists and other advice to get your holiday off to a flying start. 

  • Holidays - this includes a holiday checklist and information about the European Health Insurance card (EHIC).
  • Air Travel - How to travel with your medicines and information on your asthma and altitude.
  • Travel insurance - how to get the right insurance provider for you.

If you have any suggestion about what you would like us to include in the travel section of the Asthma UK website, please contact our Supporter Care Team on info@asthma.org.uk or phone us on 0800 121 62 55.
