After installing the heart stent, whether you can fly should be analyzed according to the specific situation:

after installing the heart stent, it takes a certain recovery time. If the condition is still unstable and the wound has not healed, it is not recommended to fly because the patient needs to rest and recover physical strength. Avoid strenuous activities. When flying, the air pressure is relatively high, which may exert pressure on the heart, and sitting for a long time may increase the risk of thrombosis. If the condition is stable after installing the heart stent, it has been 3-6 months, and there is no angina symptoms, generally you can fly.
