If the Passenger wishes to arrive on his/her own at the gate, this desire must be expressly indicated at the time of booking.
The wheelchair or mobility device of PRM Passengers shall be tagged as checked luggage but will be loaded onto the plane upon arrival at the gate. For this reason, it is recommended that PRM Passengers arrive at the departure gate at the time indicated on their boarding pass, always at least forty (40) minutes before the flight departure time.
Upon arrival at the destination, the chair or mobility device shall be delivered to the baggage claim hall. World2Fly does not have a wheelchair or space to locate the Passenger's own chair within the Passenger cabin.

World2Fly does not provide additional oxygen to a Passenger who requires it for medical reasons. Likewise, World2Fly cannot carry oxygen bottles on its aircraft, as they are considered dangerous goods.
However, the use of oxygen concentrators (POC) or oxygen generators (CPAP) is permitted for use on board, provided the requirements in the section Transportation of Oxygen Concentrators / Oxygen Generators on the full version of the General Conditions of Carriage are met.
World2Fly recommends that the Passenger have a medical report close at hand certifying the need to use the aforementioned devices, in case of request by airport authorities or the flight crew.

The Passenger must ensure that they have all the medicines they will need on board in a bag contained in their hand luggage. Please note that space in the cabin is limited and that carry-on bags may have to be loaded in the hold due to lack of space in the cabin. In such a case, the Passenger should collect the necessary medicines before the carry-on luggage is removed and loaded in the hold. For further information please refer to Carriage of Medicines in the full version of the General Conditions of Carriage.

It is essential for all passengers with allergies to carry an epinephrine injection in case of an attack, together with a medical note certifying the need to carry it and must tell the cabin crew about their allergy as soon as they board the plane. World2Fly cannot accept liability if a passenger does not carry the injection.
