Hi,
Thank you for posting your query.
It is good to note that you have had a good recovery after suffering from subarachnoid bleeding.
However, we need to know whether it was spontaneous or due to head injury. Whether any aneurysm was found and treated?
In any case, if you are well, you can undertake the six hour flight.
Please get back if you require any additional information.

Best wishes,
