According to the US Bureau of Transportation Statistics, over 2 million passengers fly every day, which includes passengers with assisted devices including CPAP machines. Most airlines have specific policies for traveling with a CPAP machine, also referred to as an assisted or medical device. Before flying with your CPAP machine, you’ll need to contact your airline at least two weeks prior if not sooner. Let them know you will be bringing a CPAP machine and may need to use it in-flight.
