Publishes assistance information but no mobility-aid carriage detail.

Fragments only. Camair-Co publishes some assistance information but not a full mobility-aid policy. What is below is everything it actually states. Everything marked “not published” genuinely is — confirm it with the airline rather than assuming the international baseline applies.

Who to contact

Transcribed from the airline’s own pages, exactly as it labels them.

No dedicated accessibility line, e-mail or assistance form is published. The only numbers on the site are the two general Call Center numbers repeated in the footer of every page; the Contacts page is an agency finder covering Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, DR Congo, Côte d'Ivoire, France, Gabon, Nigeria, Senegal, Benin and Republic of the Congo, with no phone numbers rendered without JavaScript.

Powered wheelchairs & batteries

The part that goes wrong. Battery chemistry and watt-hours decide whether your chair flies, and the rules differ depending on whether the battery can be removed.

Powered chairs accepted
Not published

Not published. Camair-Co says nothing anywhere on its site about battery-powered wheelchairs or scooters. Its general conditions subject "dispositifs d'assistance spéciaux" to prior notification and acceptance, but set out no acceptance procedure, battery rule or approval route for a powered chair.

Lithium-ion batteries
Not published

Not published for mobility aids. Camair-Co's only battery statement is on the baggage page: under IATA rules certain items are barred from checked baggage, "par exemple les briquets, les allumettes, les pièces de rechange au lithium" (lighters, matches, spare lithium batteries). No watt-hour figure appears anywhere on the site.

Manual wheelchairs

Conditional

Carriage of disabled passengers is "soumis à l'acceptation préalable" of Camair-Co (art. VIII.2), and passengers "voyageant avec des dispositifs d'assistance spéciaux" must notify the airline at purchase or before check-in (art. VIII.3(a)) — otherwise boarding of the passenger and/or the item may be refused. No wheelchair-specific acceptance rule is published.

How to request assistance
Tell Camair-Co when you buy the ticket, and at the latest before check-in

Art. VIII.3(a): passengers needing special attention — including disabled passengers and those travelling with special assistive devices — must inform Camair-Co at the time of purchase or, at the latest, before check-in. If the request is made only at check-in, Camair-Co accepts no liability for failing to meet it and may refuse boarding to the passenger and/or the item concerned.

Charge for carrying the aid
Not published

Not published. Camair-Co does not say whether a mobility aid is carried free or counts against the baggage allowance. (Guide dogs accompanying blind or physically disabled passengers are stated to travel free, in addition to the free baggage allowance.)

Seating & movable armrests
Not published

Not published. The "Siège dans l'avion" and "Assistance spéciale" pages are both empty; no bulkhead, movable-armrest or priority-seating rule is stated.

Assistance spéciale (page publiée mais sans contenu) (opens in a new tab) · read 2026-07-29

Worth knowing

Camair-Co's "Assistance spéciale" page exists in the menu and is linked from every page, but it is an EMPTY SHELL — it renders a title and the navigation and nothing else (same for "Siège dans l'avion", "Préparer son voyage" and "Réclamations"). The only disability text the airline publishes is in its Conditions générales de transport: carriage of disabled passengers is subject to Camair-Co's PRIOR ACCEPTANCE, and passengers travelling with special assistive devices must give notice at ticket purchase or at the latest before check-in, failing which Camair-Co may refuse boarding to the passenger and/or the item. Nothing at all is published about wheelchairs, batteries, watt-hours, gate delivery, on-board chairs or fees. Note also an internal contradiction on the baggage page: the heading reads "objets interdits dans le bagage de cabine" while the text underneath says the listed items (lighters, matches, spare lithium batteries) are barred from CHECKED baggage. English pages exist (/page/CM/en/...) but are the same empty shells. Site checked in French; call centre +237 233 50 55 20 / +237 670 51 54 09.
