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.

    When we retired from farming 3 years……

    When we retired from farming 3 years ago, it never occurred to me to sit on my butt and watch the world go by. I had spent years doing barn chores without a thought to my mobility. There were wheelbarrows, carts, brooms, shovels, forks, scrapers and …

    Top quality…

    I live in an area with lots of cobblestones big and small. There are also nice paths to walk on, but unfortunately some of them are very rough and with my normal rollator I constantly had arm and neck pain.

    The TRIONIC Sport has solved my problem.…

    Veloped Sport 14er M…

    I do enjoy my Trionic Veloped. However, I think the seat depth could be improved by making the rear verticals slightly further back (which would probably involve major costs!). Also, I do not find the front wheel combination very helpful and have con…

    I’m thrilled with this!…

    Transformed my life! Yes, I did get out before but was very unsteady and was always concerned that I might need to sit down and there was nowhere to sit (unfortunately I can’t sit on the ground!). Now I no longer have these concerns! My confidence ha…

    A Winner!…

    I have suffered from peripheral neuropathy for over 5 years, which makes it difficult for me to walk. Indeed, my daughter was appalled to see how unstable I was even with a stick and said that I should get aid with wheels. I tried what was available …

    Surprisingly good walker…

    I have a small farm with a few animals left and need help getting myself around.
    The Neurologist recommended I get a sturdy walker that I could use to not only help me walk but put animal feed and water in.
    This does both things very well.
