Airlines Who Accept The INOGENOne Currently, the following airlines allow the use of the Inogen One onboard their aircraft:
The FAA has approved oxygen concentrators like the INOGEN One to be used on board commercial aircraft. However, whether or not the INOGEN One is allowed to be used while in-flight is up to each individual airline. Please click on the link above for a listing of each airline which accepts the INOGEN One for use while the aircraft is in-flight.
Prior to the booking of your flight there are a few details you should take care of:
• Check with your airline to confirm they will permit the use of your INOGEN One.
• Comply with all conditions and restrictions as designated by your chosen airline
.
• Make your reservation for an INOGEN One unit from CareVacations.
Below is a link to a physician statement template which is accepted by many airlines. Some airlines have their own form and may require that the statement obtained from your physician be printed on his/her official letterhead. This statement needs to be kept with you at all times during your flight. A new statement will not be necessary each time you fly, but the statement should be available during every flight. Please see the list of airlines who accept the INOGEN One to see if we have a link to your airline's oxygen policies and forms.

• When flying with the INOGEN One you must inform the airline in advance that you will be using your INOGEN One onboard the aircraft.
• Some airlines may equip their aircraft with onboard electrical power. You may have an opportunity to request a seat with a power port which can be used to power your INOGEN One. However, availability varies by airline, type of aircraft and class of service. You should check with the airline for availability and always plan on having sufficient battery power for the duration of your flight, plus a conservative estimate of unanticipated delays.
• Because aircraft use different power port configurations, your Mobile Power Charger includes two DC power adapters - a commonly used cigarette lighter adapter, and a less common four-pin adapter. Since it is difficult to determine which type of power supply your aircraft will have, it's a good idea to keep both adapters available when flying.
• If you will be using your INOGEN One during the flight, you may not sit in an emergency exit row or in a seat that restricts other passengers' access to an emergency exit or aisle of the passenger compartment.
