Carrying Strollers or Wheelchairs on Board
Strollers

Please see Passengers Traveling With Infants or Small Children for details on the handling of strollers.
Please check the following information if you wish to bring one of the items on board.
- Baby strollers can be brought on board only if they fall within the stipulated size regulations when folded. Please see Carry-on Baggage Size and Rules (Japan Domestic Flights) for details on the size regulations.
- As only two items of carry-on baggage are allowed, passengers bringing a baby stroller on board cannot bring other carry-on items with them aside from personal effects (such as handbags, cameras, umbrellas, etc.).
- Please fold up and if necessary store your baby stroller in its case before passing through the ticket gate.
Wheelchairs
As there is no space in the aircraft to store wheelchairs carried on board, please check in your wheelchair at the counter during the boarding procedures. We will assist you from the counter with an airport wheelchair. Please inform the member of staff if you wish to use your own wheelchair until reaching the aircraft door.
