Oko Kufuneka Ukwazi Ngokuhamba Ngee-POC
Nangona i-Air Carrier Access Act inqwenela izithuthi zomoya e-US ukuba zilungiselele abagibeli abakhubazekileyo, akukho mqathango ofuna iifayili ukuba zinike i-oksijini yezohambo ngexesha leenqwelo. I-oksijeni ithathwa njengento enobungozi, kwaye ii-airways aziyi kuvumela ukuba abagibeli bayithwale kwi-moya. Ngelixa iinqwelo-moya ziyakuthi, ukuba zifuna, zinikeze i-oksijeni yonyango eyongezelelweyo, ininzi ayinayo, kwaye bambalwa abavavanya iindleko zokumisela i-segment flight flight for each.
Iinqwelo-moya zase-US zinganceda abagibeli ukuba bazise i-oxygen concentrators (POCs) eziphathekayo kwii-airplanes, njengoko kuchaziwe kwiMigaqo ye-Federal Regulations, ngokukodwa kwi-14 CFR 11, 14 CFR 121, 14 CFR 125, 14 CFR 135, 14 CFR 1 kunye 14 I-CFR 382. La maxwebhu achaza iimfuno ze-POC kwaye achaze ukuba zithini iimpahla zomoya kwaye azifuneki kubagibeli abafuna i-oksijeni yonyango eyongezelelweyo ngexesha okanye inxalenye yeenqwelo zabo.
Ukuba uthatha indiza yehlabathi, unokufuna ukuthobela iiseti ezimbini zemigaqo - umzekelo, imithetho yase-US kunye neCanada - kwaye kufuneka uqhagamshelane ne-airline yakho ukuqinisekisa ukuba uyayiqonda yonke inkqubo omele uyilandele.
Abaxhasi be-Oxygen abavunyelweyo
NgoJuni 2016, i-FAA yabalawula inkqubo yayo yokuvunywa kwe-oxygen concentrator. Esikhundleni sokufuna abavelisi be-POC ukuba bafumane imvume ye-FAA kumzekelo ngamnye we-oxygen concentrator ephathekayo, i-FAA ngoku ifuna abavelisi ukuba bathathe iifayile ezintsha ze-POC ezihambelana neemfuno ze-FAA.
Ileta kufuneka ifake inqaku elilandelayo kwisicatshulwa esibomvu: "Umvelisi we-oxygen concentrator ephathekayo uzimisele ukuba le fowuni ihambelane nazo zonke iimfuno ze-FAA eziphathekayo zokuthutha i-oxygen concentrator kunye nokusetyenziswa kwiinqwelo-moya." Abasebenzi be-Airline banokukhangela le ilebula ukucacisa nokuba ingaba i-POC ingasetyenziselwa kwi-moya.
Iimodeli ze-POC ezindala eziye zavunywa yi-FAA zisenokusetyenziswa, nangona zingenayo ityhile. Iinqwelo-moya zingasebenzisa uluhlu olupapashwe kwi-Special Federal Aviation Regulation (SFAR) 106 ukuchonga ukuba ngaba i-POC ingasetyenziswanga ngexesha le-flight. Le mizekelo ye-POC ayidingi i-FAA.
Ngomhla we-Meyi 23, 2016, ii-FAA ziye zavuma ezi zilandelayo ezixhasiweyo ze-oksijeni ekusebenziseni ukuhamba-moya ngokuhambelana neSFAR 106:

Ukuthabatha i-Oxygen Yakho Yogxininisa kwiBhodi
Nangona i-FAA imimiselo ayifuni ukuba utshele umphathisi-moya wakho malunga ne-POC yakho ngaphambili, phantse zonke iifayili zicela ukuba uzixelele okungenani iiyure ezingama-48 ngaphambi kokuba ubalekele uhambo lwakho oluza kuzisa i-POC ebhodini.
Ezinye izithuthi zomoya, ezifana ne-Southwest kunye neJetBlue, ziyakucela ukuba ukhangele ukungena kwendiza yakho ubuncinane ngaphambi kweyure.
I-FAA ayifuni ukuba abagibeli bahamba ngee-POC ukuba banike ingxelo yegqirha kwiinqwelo-moya, kodwa ezinye izithuthi zomoya, ezifana neAlaska Airlines kunye ne-United, zifuna ukuba unikezele. Abanye, njengama-American Airlines, kufuna ukuba ubonise ukuba ungaphendula kwi-alamu zakho ze-POC ngaphambi kokuba ukhwelise indiza yakho. I-Delta idinga ukuba uthumele ifeksi okanye i-imeyile ifomu yesicelo sokuvunywa kwebhethri kumnikezeli we-oxygen, i-OxygenToGo, okungenani iiyure ezingama-48 ngaphambi kokuba ubalekele.
Hlola nge-airline yakho ukuba ufumane ukuba uya kufuneka usebenzise ifom ekhethekileyo. Uninzi lwababathwali bomoya ludinga ukuba ingxelo ibhaliwe kwiphepha lencwadi. Abanye balindele ukuba usebenzise ifom yabo.
Ukuba uhamba ngeenqwelo zeenqwelo zeenqwelo, qiniseka ukuba uyazi iinkqubo zombini wenkampani yeekitikiti kunye nomphathi osebenzayo.
Ukuba kuyimfuneko, isitatimenti segqirha kufuneka sibandakanye ulwazi olulandelayo:
- Ingxelo malunga nokukwazi kwakho ukubona, ukuva nokuphendula kwimpawu zokulumkisa kwi-POC yakho, ngokuqhelekileyo izibane ezikhanyayo kunye nama-alamu aphulaphulayo. Kumele ukwazi ukuqonda i-alamu ezilumkileyo kwaye uphendule kubo ngaphandle koncediso.
- Inkcazo yeemfuno zakho ze-oksijini - ngaba ufuna i-oksijini yezokwelapha ngexesha lonke lokuhamba, okanye phantsi kweemeko ezithile?
- Isitatimende esichaza izinga eliphezulu lokujikeleza kwe-oksijini oyifunayo ngelixa inqwelo-moya iyindiza.
Abagibeli abasebenzisa i-POC abanako ukuhlala emigqeni yokuphuma, kwaye i-POC yabo ingabamba omnye umgibeli wokufikelela kwizihlalo okanye kwiinqwelo zendiza. Ezinye iinqwelo-moya, ezifana ne-Southwest, zifuna abasebenzisi be-POC ukuba bahlale kwisihlalo sewindow.
Ukunika amandla Umgcini-khomputha Wakho Okhompyutheni
Imithwalo yomoya ayifuni ukukuvumela ukuba ufake i-POC yakho kwisistim sombane wendiza. Uya kufuneka uvelise amabhetri okwaneleyo ukunika amandla i-POC yakho yonke indiza yendiza, kuquka ixesha lesango, ixesha leeteksi, ukuthatha imali, ixesha lokuhamba kunye nokufika. Phantse bonke abathwala imimoya yase-US bafuna ukuba nizise amabhetri okwaneleyo ukunika amandla i-POC ye-150 yeepesenti "yexesha lokuhamba," elibandakanya yonke iminithi esetyenziswe kwi-moya, kunye nesibonelelo esangweni kunye nezinye ukulibaziseka. Abanye bafuna ukuba neebhetri ezaneleyo ukunika amandla i-POC yexesha lokuhamba kunye neeyure ezintathu. Uya kufuneka udibanise ne-airline yakho ukuze ufumane ukuba yeyiphi ixesha lakho lokuhamba.
Iibhetri ezongezelelweyo mazipakishwe ngokucophelela kwimithwalo yakho yokuthwala. Kufuneka uqinisekise ukuba iipedali kwiibhetri zifakwe okanye zikhuselwe ngaphandle kokudibanisa nezinye izinto kwikhwama yakho. (Ezinye iibhetri ziye zavala izikhumbuzo, ezingadingi ukuba zifakwe.) Awuyi kuvunyelwa ukuzisa iibhetri zakho ukuba zingekho iipakethe ngokufanelekileyo.
I-POC yakho kunye neebhetri ezongezelelweyo zibhekwa njengezixhobo zonyango. Ngoxa beza ku funeka bahlolwe ngabasebenzi be-TSA, abayi kubala ngokuchasene nesibonelelo sakho somthwalo.
Ukuqeshisa abaxhasi beOxygen Portable
Iinkampani ezininzi ziqeshisa i-FAA-evunyelwe i-oxygen concentrators. Ukuba i-POC yakho ayikho kwiluhlu oluvunywe yi-FAA kwaye ayithwali iilebula yokuthobela i-FAA, unokuba unqwenela ukuyihambisa kunye nokusetyenziswa kwindawo oya kuyo kwaye uyiqeshe i-POC ukuyisebenzisa.
Ngaphantsi
Imfihlelo yohambo oluphumelelayo kunye ne-oxygen concentrator ephathekayo isicwangciso sokuhamba phambili. Yazisa umphathi wakho womoya ukuba uzimisele ukuzisa i-POC nawe ngokukhawuleza xa ubhala indiza yakho. Qinisekisa ukuba uyaqonda ukuba kungekudala ngaphambi kokuba uhambo lwakho lwendiza ugqirha ugqirha inqaku elifunekayo (i-United inemithetho ekhuselekileyo) nokuba ingaba yintloko okanye incwadi ye-airline. Hlola ubungakanani bendiza yakho kwaye ube nesisa ngokulinganisela kwakho kokulibaziseka, ngokukodwa ebusika nakwixesha lokuhamba kwexesha elide, ngoko uza kuzisa iibhetri ezaneleyo.
Ngokucwangcisa phambili kunye nokulungiselela ukulibaziseka, uya kukwazi ukuphumla kokubili ngexesha lokuhamba kwakho kunye nalapho uya khona.
