Focus for Airline Travel

FAA-Approved

Focus has received the US Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) acceptance for onboard in-flight use by oxygen passengers
on commercial airlines via a 2012 amendment to SFAR 106.

In addition, as of May 13, 2009, a new Department of Transporation (DOT)/FAA ruling has determined that US-based carriers,
as well as international flights with origination or destination in the US, must allow passengers with FAA-approved portable
oxygen concentrators to use them on board, and in flight, as medically necessary. Check directly with the individual airlines
with which you would like to travel for up-to-date information on their specific POC policies.
