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.

    All round great/ fantastic unit. Easy to use, and gets around shops etc with very good manoeuvring. Folds up small. Very happy. I find it's pretty good off-road too.

  • FREEDOM!…

    I searched the web and contacted Australian mobility aids companies trying to find an 'off road' rollator for my husband to use it around the house paddock on the farm. While he has a quad bike, ute and tractor for getting around, the farm, he'd had …

  • Absolutely Marvelous…

    My Trionic Trek helps me travel to places on-and-off sidewalks, roads, and trails. Even in deep snow. I am especially fond of knowing that I have the absolute freedom of walking alone ANYWHERE within a ten-mile radius of my home (during the long dayl…

  • Mrs V Potts…

    I purchased this for my husband, but he will not use it, don't know why as he hardly walks anywhere as he is not very steady on his feet. Having said that I keep thinking I will make use of it myself. At the moment I have only moved it a short way, b…

  • Great walker…

    I bought this walker for my mother. Since we live in the countryside, it is easy to find yourself walking on uneven ground. In these moments, her wrists always hurt a lot. Now thanks to the Veloped this is no longer the case. Dirt roads and forest pa…

  • Congratulations to the whole Trionic team!…

    What you have come up with is truly impressive. I can only recommend this walker! A few weeks ago I had an accident where my mobility has been compromised. Since I didn’t want to miss small hikes, I was looking for a stable walker. The Veloped Trek d…

  • Richard…

    Thank you for sending the back cushion for my new Veloped. It fits perfectly between the brake levers and provides much-needed comfort when sitting on the lower back.

    At this early stage, I am thrilled with how my Veloped makes walking more access…

  • Excellent walker…

    Lovely walker, beautifully made. Wonderful for going up and down kerbs. Try to persevere with it but need an armrest walker to take some of the weight off my legs due to MS. I was advised you didn't do these but wanted a walker I could use on roug…
