For safety reasons, your wheelchair or mobility aid must be authorised for acceptance by the company and must meet the requirements indicated below. We company may refuse carriage if the wheelchair or mobility aid does not meet these requirements.
There are three main types of batteries:
| Battery type | Description |
| Non-spillable | Dry battery (including integrated battery) Gel battery Wet battery (sealed) The battery terminals and other electrical circuits must be isolated. The battery must be securely attached to the wheelchair or mobility aid, or removed (if specifically designed to allow this) following the manufacturer's instructions. You may carry a maximum of one spare battery with no limit to the Wh rating. |
| Lithium battery | Lithium ion battery If the battery is NOT removable, it must be securely attached to the wheelchair or mobility aid. There is no maximum Watt-hour limit if the battery remains in the device. You must ensure that all electrical circuits are isolated and that the mobility aid cannot be activated accidentally. If you remove the battery, you must follow the instructions of the manufacturer and take the battery with you as carry-on luggage. The battery may not exceed 300 Wh, or 160 Wh each if you take two (2). The power requirements are the same for spare batteries, so you can only take a maximum of: (a) One (1) lithium ion battery with a maximum of 300 Wh. (b) Two (2) batteries with a maximum of 160 Wh each. Batteries removed from the device and spare batteries must be protected from damage (e.g. placed in individual protective pouches). |
| Spillable | Wet battery We do not accept this type of battery on board. |
