Blood Clots and Travel: What You Need to Know. More than 300 million people travel on long-distance flights (generally more than four hours) each year. Blood clots, also called deep vein thrombosis (DVT), can be a serious risk for some long-distance travelers. Most information about blood clots and long-distance travel comes from information that has been gathered about air travel.
When a blood clot builds up in a vein, a condition called DVT, part of it can break off and float in your bloodstream. It travels from deep veins, usually in your leg, through veins in your belly and into your heart. From there, blood goes to your lungs. But if the clot goes with it, it can get stuck and block the blood vessels. This condition, called pulmonary embolism, is very serious. It can permanently damage a part of your lung. If a clot is large or if there are many clots, pulmonary embolism can even be deadly.
