The information published on Travel Like a Pilot is provided for general information and educational purposes.
I share travel advice based on my own experiences as a traveller and professional pilot, together with research and information from sources that I consider useful or authoritative.
Although I make reasonable efforts to keep information accurate and up to date, travel rules, aviation procedures, airline policies, prices, schedules, entry requirements and other information can change quickly. I therefore cannot guarantee that every piece of information on this website will remain complete, accurate or current.
Always check official information
Travel Like a Pilot should be used as a helpful starting point rather than as a replacement for official information.
Before travelling, you should independently confirm important information with the relevant airline, airport, government, embassy, consulate, border authority, aviation authority, travel provider or other official source.
This is particularly important for matters including passports, visas, electronic travel authorisations, immigration requirements, customs rules, vaccinations, baggage restrictions, security requirements and passenger rights.
You are responsible for ensuring that you have the correct documents and meet the requirements applicable to your individual journey.
Aviation information
Although I am a professional pilot, Travel Like a Pilot is a personal travel website.
Content on this website does not constitute flight instruction, operational guidance, aviation safety instruction or advice for professional aviation operations.
Nothing on this website should take precedence over instructions given by your operating airline, flight crew, cabin crew, airport staff, emergency services or other relevant authority.
In any safety-related situation, follow the instructions of the appropriate professionals and authorities.
Professional and employer independence
The opinions and experiences expressed on Travel Like a Pilot are my own.
Unless explicitly stated otherwise, they do not represent the views, policies or procedures of my employer, any airline, aviation authority or other organisation with which I may be professionally associated.

It is not medical advice and should not be used as a substitute for advice from a qualified healthcare professional.
If you have a medical condition, take medication, are pregnant, have concerns about travelling or are unsure whether particular advice is appropriate for you, seek appropriate medical advice before travelling.
In an emergency, seek professional medical assistance.
