MERU TravelChair Portable & lightweight Adjustable support Fits into overhead locker
We are delighted to announce the launch of the TravelChair – a unique product that provides firm, postural support enabling disabled children to fly on commercial aircraft.
Athough the law changed in 2006 regarding the rights of disabled people, many airlines still do not offer an option to enable children with disabilities to fly.
TravelChair has been developed with the support of families with disabled children, airlines and the UK Civil Aviation Authority.
It provides support for moderate/severely disabled children between the ages of 3 – 11 years (depending on weight and height) and fits into a standard airline seat. The TravelChair is suitable for children fed by gastronomy tube/jenenostomy tube/jejenally, either by bolus or continual feed.
