Frontier Airlines requires passengers who want to use a portable oxygen concentrator on board to carry this physician's statement, or a written statement answering the same questions. The physician confirms the patient can see, hear and respond to device alarms, whether oxygen is needed throughout the trip, and the maximum flow setting at an 8,000-foot cabin altitude. Agents and crew review it at the airport.
The passenger's physician completes the Physician's Statement: four questions, patient name, date, physician name, telephone and signature. The passenger keeps the original; customer service agents review it, and the flight attendant tells the pilot in command a POC is on board.

Portable Oxygen Concentrator Medical Authorization
If your copy of the form is a fillable PDF, upload it once and Vero Documents fills it from the visit note and the chart, ready for you to review and sign. Download, print, or email the finished form, with the patient’s consent.
A form is listed only after its name and number were confirmed on the issuing agency’s or insurer’s own website, or in the form itself. Each entry links to that source. The list was last checked in October 2026. Forms and their requirements change without notice, so check the official page for the current version before you complete one.

One year from the date the physician signs it. A passenger who flies Frontier more than once in that year can reuse the same signed form, as long as the answers still reflect the patient's oxygen needs and device. After a year, the physician completes a new one.
Yes. The form tells the physician to either complete it or give the passenger a written statement with the same information: ability to see, hear and understand alarms, ability to act on them without help, whether oxygen is needed at all times, and the maximum flow setting at 8,000 feet cabin altitude.
Frontier's pressurized cabin altitude equals 8,000 feet above sea level. The physician enters the maximum flow setting the patient may adjust to as needed in flight, recognizing that cabin pressure can change. The form also asks for the type of unit carried.
