In addition to your hand luggage, you can bring oxygen concentrators (CPAP) and similar respiratory devices free of charge. You won't need a medical authorisation to carry it, but it must have a label that states that it is authorised by the FAA or you must bring supporting documents with you.

These devices work with batteries and cannot be used with the electrical sockets on planes. If you need to bring additional batteries, you must place them in your hand luggage individually packed to protect them from any accidental short-circuit or damage during transport. For more information, see the battery regulations battery regulations.

CPAP machines may have to be disconnected during the trip, so they will only be accepted when disconnection does not interfere with the patient’s health.

A dialysis machine can also travel free of charge and without the need for authorisation, as long as it does not exceed 50 kg in weight. You will be able to bring two days' worth of dialysis supplies with you.
