So, I wouldn't be overly worried about flying nine months after successful surgery, but getting the quick okay from your lung team is sensible—then hopefully you can enjoy your holiday without worrying about it.
The U.S. State Department specifically recommends checking medical evacuation coverage when traveling where medical care may be limited. An air ambulance back to the United States can cost roughly $20,000–$200,000, and ordinary health insurance often doesn't cover it.

@mcharlesfrancis wow $20.000 is that alot I'm from Ireland so i don't no what way other country's work for health insurance and stuff as I mentioned to @rdebeer I have a medical card so if I need to go to gp or hospital it would be covered by this card if you don't work you get this card or if you did work a certain amount of hours your still entitled to this card and gp visits hospital visits or even treatment if needed is all covered on this card free of charge unless you wanted to pay for health care privately you could also do that
