CPAP Batteries/Flying restrictions
I am flying Air Maroc and TAP (Portugal). Does anyone know if there are restrictions for CPAP batteries? Mine is FAA approved, but I cannot find info online regarding policies for lithium ion batteries for these two airlines. Thanks

Is there not a link or a phone number you can contact those carriers directly to ask them? That will be your most accurate source of info.Sonja wrote:I am flying Air Maroc and TAP (Portugal).

Re: CPAP Batteries/Flying restrictions
Seems like they're not keeping it secret or anything, see below. Generally Lithium batteries up to 100 Watt Hours you're OK to carry on. 101-160 Watt Hours you'll need to know what each airline allows. Uninstalled spare batteries you usually have to carry on. Baggage with up to 160 WH batteries installed in a device I think you can usually check. But anything over 100 WH you better know the airline's policies.Sonja wrote:I am flying Air Maroc and TAP (Portugal). Does anyone know if there are restrictions for CPAP batteries?
