Description

The Foldable Manual Cabin Wheelchair for Air Travel is a compact and lightweight transfer wheelchair designed for travel, airports and indoor spaces where portability and manoeuvrability are important.

Built with a lightweight 7003 aluminium alloy frame, the wheelchair weighs approximately 5.5 kg and folds to a compact size for easier carrying, storage and transport. Its small wheels and attendant-controlled design make it particularly suitable for assisted mobility, airport transfers and short-distance use on smooth surfaces.

For customers looking for a wider range of everyday mobility options, explore our
manual wheelchairs.

Lightweight 5.5 kg Aluminium Frame

The cabin wheelchair is manufactured using a lightweight aluminium alloy frame and has a stated net weight of approximately 5.5 kg. Its low weight makes it easier for caregivers and family members to carry, lift and handle during travel.

Compact Folding Design for Travel

The wheelchair folds without the need to remove major components. Its unfolded size is approximately 640 × 435 × 830 mm, while the folded size is approximately 190 × 435 × 535 mm.

This compact folding design helps reduce the amount of space required for storage in vehicles, luggage areas and other confined spaces during travel.

Designed for Assisted Mobility and Transfers

This cabin wheelchair is primarily intended for caregiver-assisted mobility, transfers and short-distance travel. Its compact wheel configuration makes it well suited to airports, terminals, corridors, hotels and other indoor environments where space may be limited.

The wheelchair uses 3-inch front wheels and 5-inch rear wheels, making it different from a standard self-propelled manual wheelchair with large rear wheels.

Users who require regular independent propulsion or longer-distance everyday mobility may be better suited to another model from our
manual wheelchair range.
