You will receive a verifiable digital PDF letter signed by a medical professional and sent directly to your mobile, containing the following details:

  • A 30-second to 1-minute video confirming that your chickenpox spots have scabbed over

What happens if I’m not fully recovered from chickenpox?

If our doctors feel the chickenpox spots are not fully scabbed over, and that you or your child are still infectious, they will issue a letter stating that you are ‘Not fully recovered’ and ‘Not fit-to-fly’. This can be used for insurance purposes and rearranging flights with your airline or travel company.

Chickenpox can cause problems with immunocompromised individuals and during pregnancy. Our doctors have a clinical responsibility to ensure that we only sign off patients to travel who are no longer infectious.

Daughter came out in chickenpox whilst on holiday, devastated as we were in Florida and half way through our trip! Panic started to set in as it's a long flight home and she was contagious. Zoom doc was easy to use for a fit to fly letter once the spots started scabbinv over. Have already told family to use when away just purely for how efficient they were!

Fast and efficent!

Our son had chickenpox whilst we were away. I realised last minute that although he was no longer contagious he required a fit to fly certificate. I ordered the certificate through ZoomDoc, took a short video and sent it through. We had our certificate within a matter of minutes. Very good service and very good value.
