Hello! How can we help you?

What is the best way to fly with a rollator?

When flying with a Veloped or Walker, do as follows: 

Don’t pack the Veloped/Walker. Instead, walk with it to the check-in counter. When checking in, tell the staff that you would like to bring your "rollator" into the airport (important that you say “rollator” or “mobility aid”). They put a baggage tag on it, and you bring it through the security control. But note that it's always a good idea to reach out to the airline and let them know your plans to bring the walker all the way to the plane.


Right before you board the aircraft, put the Veloped/Walker to the side, and the staff will load it into the aircraft's luggage compartment. Before you put it aside, fold the frame and lower the handgrips to the bottom position. It may also be a good idea to secure packing material, such as bubble wrap, onto the frame as your mobility aid's handling may vary from airport to airport.

If you do as described, you can bring your full baggage allowance (20–25 kg), as the Veloped/Walker is regarded as a mobility aid and its weight is not included in your luggage. If you pack it and check it in, it will be seen as luggage (about 15–17 kg incl. carton/packaging), limiting the amount of normal luggage you can bring.

    I’m 69. Sadly, cancer attacked my spine. I lost the ability to walk, had lots of treatment at Clatterbridge Liverpool, and then home physiotherapist visits. I’m now walking slowly.

  • PERFECT…

    Perfect, because you can walk upright and avoid walking with a bent back. The back improves the more you walk.
    A tip: When folding the Veloped, there should be a latch that keeps the frame locked in a folded state.

    I'm a 73-year-old male. I have a long history of back problems. Until my most recent injury, I enjoyed long daily walks. I found that when using a grocery cart while shopping the support it gave me significantly reduced my discomfort.
