Do I need a letter from my doctor to take on the plane?

You should travel with your ASCIA Action Plan for anaphylaxis and your ASCIA Travel Plan for people at risk of anaphylaxis.

Some airlines ask you to bring a letter or medical clearance from a doctor when flying with food allergy. Some airlines require you to complete a Medical Information Form (MEDIF) before the flight and get approval to fly. Some airlines require you to sign a waver. Check with your airline.
