Passengers must prepare their wheelchair batteries as necessary before the flight.
Liquid Batteries can not be taken on our flights.
The wheelchair must be securely packed with dry cell battery terminals protected from short circuiting or deactivated in some way to prevent short circuiting.
Necessary precautions must be taken for battery-powered items (e.g. collapsible) which are designed to be adjusted by the user:
After any batteries have been removed, wheelchairs can be transported as hold baggage without any restrictions.
Battery terminals must be isolated to protect against short circuiting. (E.g.by taping up battery terminals)
Wrapping the detached battery in a protective covering should prevent any damage. Batteries must be carried in the passenger cabin.
Removal of batteries must be carried out by following the manufacturer’s instructions or by the equipment owner.
A maximum of 1 spare battery, which must not exceed 300 watts, or 2 spare batteries, which must be no more than 160 watts each, can be carried.
Wheelchairs brought by passengers are carried in the hold free of charge and are not counted as part of their baggage allowance.
What are the rules for travelling with pets?

Passengers must bring their pets into the cabin inside a box or cage (supplied by the passenger), which must not exceed the dimensions of 32cmx32cmx50cm cm or total weight of 8 kg. Pets weighing over 8 kg in their cages must be placed in the cargo hold. You must make a reservation for the pet you wish to travel with by calling the Pegasus Call Centre on 0090 850 250 67 77.
The United Kingdom, UAE, and Qatar do not accept live animals from abroad, so pets cannot be taken to these countries.
