Using Your HELiOS Marathon H850 Portable Oxygen Unit
Travelling by Plane
Many airlines prevent clientele from using a
personal portable oxygen unit. Rather, clientele
must use oxygen supplied by the airline and there
may be a supplemental charge for this service.
In addition, many airlines require a prescription
from your physician before providing oxygen
during flight. For this reason, non-stop flights are
optimal, since there is no need to arrange for
oxygen between flights, for layovers or flight
delays.
Contact your oxygen supplier, who may assist you
with making appropriate pre-boarding, in-flight,
and post-landing arrangements for oxygen.
Travelling by Train
Contact the railway line ahead of time for
restrictions or policies regarding the use of
supplemental oxygen on board their trains.
Travelling by Cruise Line
Notify your travel agent or cruise line of your
supplemental oxygen needs. Some cruise lines
provide oxygen, while others do not. If they do not,
provide your oxygen supplier plenty of advance
notice to deliver adequate oxygen supply to the
ship prior to departure and for refills at ports of call
along the way.
