WHEELCHAIR TRAVEL BAG
© 2003
INSTRUCTIONS AT CHECK-IN AND ON EMBARKATION
Fold
your blue
wheelchair bag so that its black handle is available at the top of the
smaller bag that holds it.
Stow your wheelchair bag (in its own
bag) on the back of your wheelchair.
At the check-in desk state clearly that you wish to use your wheelchair
until you reach the aircraft.
This will give you some privacy and
will also ensure that, should there be delays, you are in a familiar
wheelchair
until you can board.
The baggage handling ticket for the wheelchair MUST be attached to the
BLACK handle of the large blue
wheelchair bag (and not to the handle of
the small red bag holding it).
On arrival at the aircraft, you will be transferred to an airline
wheelchair. Fold your wheelchair. Unpack the blue bag
and
slide the wheelchair into it along with its own bag. Ensure that
the baggage handling ticket is prominent.
Zip up the bag and the
airline staff can carry it into the hold.
If for any reason the airline staff prevent you from using your own
wheelchair up to the aircraft, transfer from your
wheelchair to theirs
at their luggage trolley and then pack your wheelchair into its
bag.
Airline staff can lift the bag onto their luggage trolley.
On disembarkation your wheelchair will be delivered with your
luggage.
If you wish, you can request that your wheelchair is
unloaded when you leave the aircraft
but this may not always be
possible.
Happy Travelling
