As long as it is a Class 2 medical device, they have to accept the scooter as a gate-checked item as we also mentioned in our other article here. In addition, there are no restrictions to models with Sealed Lead Acid batteries so it’s easier compared to power wheelchairs or mobility scooters with lithium batteries.
