Per the US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA's) special federal aviation rule (SFAR 106) of July 12, 2005, AirSep Corporation is pleased to announce that the following domestic and international commercial airline carriers have approved the LifeStyle™ Portable Oxygen Concentrator for on-board and in-flight use, as determined by an oxygen passenger's valid medical prescription. Please check with each airlines' own web site, as well as their medical oxygen desk, for up-to-date information on the airlines' specific oxygen passenger requirements. Please also continue to review this site, as we have been informed that additional airline carriers will be following suit with the allowance of LifeStyle in the coming weeks, based on their own approval and training schedules, etc. LifeStyle and all power accessories, including PowerPack, are RTCA-DO160D, Section 21, Category M-compliant. Individual air carriers approving LifeStyle will determine applicable power sources allowed for their aircraft. AirSep recommends that an oxygen patient traveling via air always provide as much notice on flight schedules to the selected airline(s) as possible, and that enough battery power, etc., to ensure an adequate supply for the duration of the flight(s), including scheduled layovers and unplanned delays are accounted for by the traveler. *Certain airlines may require the RTCA certification label (located on the inside cover of the units). If the LifeStyle unit is a pre-RTCA unit, please contact your local equipment provider about obtaining the LifeStyle airline upgrade, including the RTCA label.
