Finnair onboard wheelchair: request the equipment and arrange transfer help

Check your aircraft before relying on an onboard wheelchair. Finnair’s A330 and A350 flights carry one. For Finnair A319, A320 or A321 flights, request WCOB at least 48 hours before departure through the special assistance form’s Additional information field.

Important unknowns

  • The source does not establish the outcome of an individual request. Confirm current instructions with the airline; the effective date of these provisions is not established.

What to do next

  1. Identify the account

    Plan transfers separately. Crew can bring the chair and escort you to the lavatory door, but you must transfer independently or with your own assistant.

  2. Use the official recovery route

    For Business Class on A330 and A350 aircraft, crew can provide the ableSling transfer sling and instructions. Your own assistants are needed to use it. Arrange that help before expecting the equipment itself to resolve the transfer.
