CERTIFIED FOR FLIGHT

The ONLY Folding Electric Wheelchair
Cleared by Every Governing Body in Aviation.

Every other knockoff forces you to remove the batteries at the gate. Our patented chair carries credentials they don't — so you roll on, and the chair stays assembled.

DESIGNATION
UN3481
Lithium-Ion Batteries Contained Within Equipment — Same as Your Smartphone and Laptop
US APPROVAL
FAA
Federal Aviation Administration — Officially Assigned Regulations for all Domestic Flights
GLOBAL APPROVAL
IATA
International Air Transport Association — Cleared for International Flights
WHAT IT MEANS FOR YOU
BATTERIES STAY
INSIDE THE FRAME
No Disassembly. Unplug & Take the Joystick Onboard, Fold and Gate-Check the Chair.

Why this matters: Every aluminum folding wheelchair on the market lacks the UN3481 designation. That means your must remove the battery at every gate, every connection — and a real risk of being refused boarding. FOLD & GO is the only chair in its class, cleared for flight with batteries installed inside the frame of the chair.

BEFORE YOU FLY

8 Steps for a Smooth Flight
with Your FOLD & GO.

Follow these in order. By the time you reach the gate, there's nothing left to worry about.

STEP 01

Review Airline Policies

Most airlines follow FAA regulations, but confirm handling procedures with your specific carrier.

STEP 02

Download MSDS Certificate

Print it, bring it, hand it over if asked at check-in.

STEP 03

Attach Travel Placards

Attach to chair frame and travel cover. Luggage-tag format gives Airline Pilot key info fast.

STEP 04

Airline Protection Cover

Shield your chair from scratches, baggage, and mishandling. A must-have for flyers.

STEP 05

Keep Batteries Inside

FAA requires lithium-ion batteries stay installed. Ours are housed inside the frame.

STEP 06

Stay Seated for TSA

Never get out of your chair while going through TSA Security.

STEP 07

NEVER Baggage Check

Luggage conveyors cause frame damage. Always gate-check — chair returns at the aircraft door.

STEP 08

Check Your Bolts

When you land inspect ALL bolts, frame, and electrical system for damage.

IF A GATE AGENT PUSHES BACK ON THE BATTERIES

Your 3-Answer Script
for the Gate Agent.

Airline staff aren't trained on patented folding power chairs. These are the three questions you'll hear — and the exact answers that end the conversation.

The black CPU box mistaken for the battery
TWO BATTERIES - IN THE FRAME
THE AGENT ASKS

"Where are the batteries?"

YOUR ANSWER

"They're inside the metal frame of my wheelchair — they are not removable. The frame protects them."

Heads up: The CPU under the seat is often mistaken for the battery. Just explain — education goes a long way.

FOLD & GO chair with travel compliance placard attached
FAA / IATA PLACARD ATTACHED
THE AGENT ASKS

"Is this FAA-approved?"

YOUR ANSWER

"Yes — UN3481 designation, assigned by both the FAA and IATA. Same classification as a laptop."

Have backup: If they want documentation, show them the Travel Placard. Make sure the Pilot sees it also.

Owner boarding the plane with the joystick removed
JOYSTICK COMES ON BOARD
THE AGENT ASKS

"Can it turn on during flight?"

YOUR ANSWER

"No — I've removed the joystick and it's with me on board. The chair cannot activate."

Always: Unplug the joystick before covering your chair. Take it on board in your carry-on — NEVER checked baggage.

Still getting pushback? Call us at 512-817-FOLD (3653), Option 1. We've talked down airline desks in 12 countries. We'll get on the phone with your agent if we need to.

The One Document
That Ends the Argument.

Every FOLD & GO comes with a certified MSDS outlining the crash tests our batteries have passed and proving FAA compliance. Print it. Pack it. Hand it to the gate agent if asked. It's the difference between rolling onto the plane and a 20-minute debate at check-in.
