Does anyone knows the dimensions in the bag? The question is to know if it could be accepted as airplane baggage.

I measure ours at about 12" X 12" X 31". The bag is soft, and the wheelchair irregularly-shaped, so it is possible it could be jammed in a smaller space. We gate-checked ours (without a bag and without incident) for an overseas flight. There was an early question about cobblestones -- we found those to be a huge challenge -- this works well on smooth, flat surfaces.

It is accepted and there is no cost to check the wheelchair. I suggest that you read the airline's handicap assistance information...

I keep the original box for future shipping. The box dimension is 11"x10"X31". When I open the box , the chair was folded inside the bag and I just pulled it out and open it. I don't travel with it yet, but I had my 210 lb son sited and push him around in my house .On the marble floor and hardwood floor ,it's very smooth.

It is considered a medical device therefore is a check bag that doesn't count against your check bags

I have travelled on several planes with the chair in its bag without any problems. Just tell the airline that you will be travelling with your own wheelchair when you make your booking or when you ask for airport wheelchair assistance and then simply check it in with your luggage. The airlines have never made a charge for the chair and it is always in addition to your personal baggage allowance. The actual measurements of the chair in its bag have never been mentioned.

It's a small bag! I think you could take it as a carry on if you'd like. I don't see why it would be a problem. I took it with me onto a plane a few months back.

The bag itself is rather long. 36"x17"x12" from what im reading. American Airlines limits for carry on luggage is 22"x14"x9". By paper you cannot take it on a plane. now it has been a while since I have seen my bag but I do believe I will fit, however I feel as though they will make you check it at the loading terminal if there are to many passangers or they see that it is to big. My recommendation would be to not to take it on a plane.

Don't remember dimensions of package; however, do not think it would qualify for carry-on, but certainly could be checked.

If you were to fill the bag to capacity, unfortunately it will not conform to most airline measurement restrictions. The bag itself measures 27.5"L x 13"W x 13"H. This bag has a total size limit of 53.5" (L+W+H), and most airlines (domestic & international) allow for an average of about 50". That I know of, AirTran is the only one that allows a max size limit of 55".

I haven't actually flown with my bag, but I see no reason why it would not work fine as a carry-on. It would be best to ask someone who knows all the ins and outs of air carrier rules. Sorry I cannot be of more help.

It ***might***. However, I don't have the bag anymore so I can't measure it for sure. It's something like 4" by 3" by 1" as I recall.

Difficult to say. It quite possibly might, as it's literally the biggest bag on the market that still fits in an airline overhead bin. It fits bigger than a normal 17.3 inch, and with some room. You might be able to squeeze an 18.4" in there, but I can't say that for certain.

I don't know what bag you're talking about but this would be very difficult to bring on a flight. It's big and doesn't come apart to break down into small pieces. I would ship it. Much easier and cheaper.

It is a long bag, as long as you dont put long fins in yes it will fit in the overhead bin on a plane

Its approx. 4 1/2 feet high and about 12 inches wide and 8 inches deep. You can probably check it but they may charge you for extra baggage for size. Good luck.

Officially it exceeds the max airline bag dimensions by 10" ...but I managed to get mine checked in for a flight to Europe with Swiss international. I had to make sure it stays below the maps weight and the only checked bag so they allowed me to take it along for free. What I did is to ask before booking the flight and then select another carrier if they would have charged me 150$ for it each way!

I checked my bag and I would say it has about 1/2" of padding. Plenty of padding to carry around but like rdwalker26 answered it will probably not hold up to airline travel.

I'm not entirely sure of the dimensions of your bag; however, I have a Sun Mountain C-130. It is a fairly hefty bag, and it fits no worries.

It is 38x15x6 and would not check it as baggage. I would carry it on board or not take it at all. It is a thin nylon with no lining so it can fold and flop around, not sturdy. I use it to store my keyboard at home. I also bought foam rubber at a fabric store to pad it to make it more sturdy. It isn't padded as the ad says, just a cheap nylon lining that isn't very protective. Buy extra padding. However it holds my keyboard, power supply, pedal, music stand, music books on the outside pockets, and my folding stand for it also headset and mike. Holds a lot but get extra padding or find a hardcover one for shipping.
