Thanks. I am meeting with local provider later today. I am looking at 10lb continuous on the go by philips. I did talk to local supplier on the phone as i was looking at Inogen 4, but he told me lots of people returning as they feel it doesnt "deliver" enough o2 and opting for OntheGo. I will ask about Inogen 5.
How do i request for w/c service in between flights ? I never done it. I am 45 yo, fit, but now like a car without a gas. We will have layover in Mexico city and i know airport well, there is quite a walk between terminals as we flew before. Is this done through airline ?
Thanks.
Lena

Go to your booking, if you have it on-line, and find My Trips or Special Requests and there should be a place to request wheelchairs. It'll usually give the option to the gate or to the plane. Be sure to request it on return flights, too. If you aren't able to do it online, you can call them. They prefer 48 hour notice, but if you aren't able to request it until you get to the ticket counter, they will help you. Always get a printed copy of your boarding pass, because the service person will need it to log into their ipad and get you to the right gate. You also need the boarding pass when you get off the plane. DH wouldn't be able to fly without their help. It is a great service all airlines offer. Good luck to you!
Mayo set up DH's appts yesterday to be seen in a couple weeks. They are so efficient!
