Turkish Airlines wheelchair service

Submit wheelchair requests (WCHR/WCHS/WCHC) at least 48 hours before departure, ideally confirmed in your booking; later requests are accommodated based on availability only.

Turkish Airlines provides free, end-to-end assistance from check-in and security through boarding and deplaning.

Personal wheelchairs can be checked in and returned planeside where available; let the airline know battery type and dimensions in advance for electric models.

Request support as early as possible and follow the airline's published notice period, especially for powered equipment, medical clearance or a group booking.

We summarize Turkish Airlines's own published wheelchair service. Airlines change fees, allowances and document rules without notice, so always confirm the latest details on the official page linked below before you travel.
