Can I go Diving?

Flying after Scuba Diving

For a single, non-decompression scuba dive, you should not fly or go to altitude for at least 18 hours after a scuba dive.  You should not fly for 24 hours after your last dive.  If you are skydiving or hot-air ballooning, you must wait 24 hours after diving.  We recommend waiting a minimum of 24 hours whenever possible.
