Thank you Philtaz. My partner has got lung cancer (both) and recently told it is also in his Trachea, he wanted to go to Australia to see our grandchildren, but it looks as if that is out of the question thankyou again whf
Sorry to hear that whf. Without sounding morbid, as this may be his last chance it's worth consulting your GP and also making enquiries with the airline, just in case.

Best wishes.
Try the airlines, depends how advanced it is, and they will probably put all sorts of conditions on the flight.
It`s certainly not unheard of for someone to fly with lung cancer. It depends how far advanced it is. He`ll probably need (and will have to pay for) oxygen though. The airline will give you details of that. His biggest worry will be getting travel insurance.
