Passengers needing escorts
For safety reasons, Cathay Pacific may require a passenger to travel with an escort or attendant if the passenger:
- Will travel in a stretcher* or incubator or require medical attention during the flight. (The attendant must be capable of attending to their medical needs in the cabin)
- Is unable to comprehend or respond properly to safety instructions due to a mental disability.
- Has mobility impairment, which is so severe that the passenger is unable to assist in his or her own evacuation of the aircraft.
- Has severe hearing and vision impairments and cannot establish some means of communication with airline employees.
