You can aim to choose mobility scooters suitable for air travel. These include compact, and portable and easy-to-disassemble travel scooters that can be stored in cargo of an airplane.

The FAA allows you to bring lithium batteries up to 300Wh or less on the plane. The batteries can be checked or brought as a carry on. A maximum of one spare battery not exceeding 300 Wh or two spares not exceeding 160 Wh each may be carried on. To calculate Watt hours, simply multiply your battery voltage x Ah and that is your Wh (watt hours). For example, a 24v 11.5ah battery has 276 Wh. 

If the battery stays on the unit, it must be protected against other baggage, or other cargo. Suppose the mobility device does not provide adequate protection. In that case, the battery must be removed, battery terminals covered, and the battery must be taken on as carry-on baggage.

Before traveling with your power chair or mobility scooter, we recommend you contact your airline on how to transport your battery as a passenger. You might be required to plan prior to your trip, and additional time might be needed for check-in.

Before your trip, you should also check with your airline if your folded-up wheelchair/device will be allowed in the passenger cabin or if the mobility device, with batteries removed, will have to travel as checked baggage.
