One final question: can you receive vaccinations at the airport? Obviously this is an absolute last resort for me, but if it were suddenly declared that a vaccination for [insert disease here] were required before I could board the plane back home, are there centres within the airport that can vaccinate me so I don't had to find a doctor in Quito?

Thanks
As we understood it, they would have made us re-book the flight (an extra few days or a week for example) and then we would have to find a doctor on our own and get the vaccinations and the card.

Perhaps the Yellow Fever issue is over now, and there wont be any problem. I don't personally know how to check that, as we were never notified when we came in to Ecuador that that would be an issue.
