ANA wheelchair assistance: use a mobility and equipment checklist

A personal wheelchair is checked without an ordinary baggage charge, but its size, weight, battery, and the aircraft's loading capability still need review. A reservation alone does not resolve those equipment questions. Explain your ability to walk, climb stairs, and transfer into the aircraft seat. Prepare the wheelchair's folded dimensions and the manufacturer's battery details, including removable components and spare batteries. Give ANA the full itinerary so the assessment covers the aircraft and airports on every segment. Keep the checklist and the airline's instructions available at check-in. Label removable parts and write brief handling directions for staff. Ask where the wheelchair will be handed over and returned, and arrange any personal assistance beyond the airline's stated service. If your aircraft or routing changes, confirm the equipment review again instead of assuming the earlier decision automatically transfers.
