Travelling with the Portable Oxygen Unit
Travelling by Car
Map out the route you will take before you leave.
Determine whether your oxygen supply will suffice.
If the distance and time spent on the road is greater
than the portable oxygen unit can manage, plan
appropriate stops along the way where oxygen
services are available to refill it. Contact your
oxygen supplier for alternate suppliers along your
route or have them contact suppliers and arrange
to have the oxygen ready when you arrive.
Travelling by Bus
Contact the bus company ahead of time for
restrictions or policies regarding the use of
supplemental oxygen on board their bus lines.
