Apologies if this has been posted before, but I don't remember seeing it here:
- The FAA has determined that airlines can safely expand passenger use of Portable Electronic Devices (PEDs) during all phases of flight, and is immediately providing the airlines with guidance. Expanded use will not happen overnight. The process will vary among airlines, but the agency expects airlines to allow passengers to safely use their devices in airplane mode, gate-to-gate, by the end of 2013.
The related FAQ, which does explicitly mention Medical PEDs, including CPAP devices, can be found here...
