Passenger Safety & Dignity

Life shouldn’t be restricted and an on board wheelchair, designed specifically for use within the confines of an aircraft cabin, enables an airline to provide a safe, reliable and dignified experience for those needing special assistance.

Additionally, a positive, caring experience for the passenger not only makes flying easier and more enjoyable but also cements their relationship with the airline they have chosen.

 

DOT Rules for Onboard Wheelchairs

Flying Inclusively

As a business, we totally support the work of groups such as Rights On Flights and All Wheels Up in their on-going campaigns to have aircraft cabin interiors re-modelled to accommodate wheelchairs. However, even this level of accessibility doesn’t negate the need for an onboard wheelchair as passengers may still need to visit the lavatory during a flight.  Additionally, many passengers, who are not regular wheelchair users, also take advantage of an onboard wheelchair to make moving around the confines of a cabin easier.

The Airchair provides a safe, comfortable and dignified experience for any passenger who requires special assistance during their flight.

Carers & Airline Staff

Preserving the dignity of passengers is as important for the cabin crew as it is the passenger in need of special assistance. A well designed, on board wheelchair gives the cabin crew confidence in being able to offer the right support for a passenger and being able to use a simple but effective product makes their job much easier.

Assisting passengers needing special assistance can be difficult but if the correct equipment is available, it makes this job easier and considerably less stressful. A dignified solution for all.

The retracting back rest on the Airchair means that the passenger’s carer or cabin crew can easily assist with the transfer from the Airchair to the aircraft seat. They can be closer to the passenger without having to stretch over the back of the wheelchair.

A Positive Experience

Being able to transfer to the aircraft seat simply and easily, as well as using the aircraft facilities during a flight, is welcomed by passengers needing special assistance. Everyone wants passengers to enjoy their flight, have a pleasant experience and be able to move around inside an aircraft without fuss or embarrassment.

The Airchair is the ideal on-board wheelchair to achieve this.
