No precautions, but I do take a benzo, just in case.

Re: Flying and Tachycardia
I have SVT and other cardiac issues. Flying/traveling increases anxiety and stress for some which in turn can increase tachy. May be a good idea to talk to your dr before going. Some doctors give out "pill in the pocket" type medications for the just in case situation.

I have Tachycardia and I never have an increase in symptoms when I fly. You can ask your dr to give you meds to keep on you just incase. I used to take Toprol and it really helped me
