Most power wheelchairs aren't built with air travel in mind. The Drive Medical CarbonTouch is, with an ultra-lightweight carbon fiber frame weighing just 36.4 lb without the battery and an FAA-compliant lithium battery that makes it a genuine option for planes, trains, and cruise ships, not just around town.
A one-touch folding mechanism collapses the CarbonTouch in seconds for the car or checked luggage, while the 330 lb weight capacity and 17" x 18" seat accommodate more users than many competing lightweight powerchairs. Switching between powered and manual mode is simple, so it flexes across care settings without needing a different chair.
Here's everything that comes standard, so you know exactly what you're getting:
