General safety note: 

Experiments have shown that the risk of the so called decompression sickness (=DCS) drops when you plan a larger time frame between the last dive and your flight.

Based on those studies general recommendations have been established. Those are valid for flights in altitudes between 600 m/2000 feet and 2400 m/8000 feet and for divers without DCS symptoms.

A study by Bühlmann, which was guideline for the US Navy Divers, shows that an immediate rise up to the altitude of 600 m/2000 feet with low DCS risk is possible.

In 1999 the US Navy implemented a more flexible method that is based on both Bühlmann and Vann et al. Under consideration of both studies the DCS risk can be reduce but it cannot be excluded.

Dives within the free decompression limit

  • One dive – a time period of 12 hours is recommended between the dive and the flight
  • Several dives and/or dive programs lasting several days – minimum time period between the last dive and the flight is 24 hours.

Dives that require a decompression stop

  • A time period of more than 24 hours between the last dive and the flight is recommended.

 

Those recommendations of „Flying after diving“ don’t have to be considered when the ambient/cabin pressure is under 600 m/2000 feet.
