G's Journal

LINDA ROBERTS  I got a non stop flight from Tampa, Fl. on Frontier. I did not fly back until about 10 days after surgery and I was in the hospital 4 days. The rest of the time I stayed at the Intercontinental with my cousin and later a friend who I was lucky to have come and be with me. You can get a wheelchair if you need one at the airport. I did not need one. Dr. Mich is an excellent surgeon. I had Dr. Svensson and was so happy with him and the care of the Cleveland Clinic. You made a good decision to fly there for your procedure. I will be happy to answer any questions you have.

Phyllis Petersen  I travelled home to Tucosn after my repair at CC and had to change planes at O'Hare! Let the airlines know and I did get a wheelchair. Even if you feel you can walk, the airport transport people can help with anything you're taking on/off the plane, but airline staff can't. You'll tire more easily too. Hopefully, you booked an aisle seat, which I also found helpful.
