Publishes nothing about carrying a passenger’s own wheelchair. You have to ask them.

CityJet publishes no mobility-aid policy. Its website works and we read it, but it says nothing about carrying a passenger’s own manual or powered wheelchair — no battery rules, no size limits, no notice period. That silence is the finding, and it is why almost every field below is blank. Silence is not permission. Ask them directly, get the answer in writing, and read the international baseline so you know what should apply.

Wet-lease / ACMI operator. CityJet usually flies aircraft and crew on behalf of other airlines. If your ticket says another airline, that airline’s wheelchair policy governs your booking — but the aircraft’s physical hold limits are this operator’s.

Who to contact

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

CityJet publishes no passenger-facing phone number or email at all. Its contact form routes to Accounts, ACMI/broker requests, Recruitment, HR and Data Subject Access Requests; the Customer Support option carries a notice that CityJet does not provide customer support for wet-lease flights. A wheelchair user booked on a CityJet-operated flight must contact the ticketing airline (currently SAS) instead.

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

CityJet publishes nothing about powered wheelchairs. Acceptance is decided by the airline whose flight number the service carries.

How to request assistance
Contact the airline you are ticketed with (currently SAS) — CityJet does not accept passenger requests

Contact page: for a flight shown as "Operated by CityJet", "you must contact this airline directly regarding any questions or issues, including … special handling requests". FAQ: "the customer airline (e.g. SAS) holds all responsibility for product and customer matters" and "CityJet cannot process or engage in any dialogue with passenger regarding flights we fly on behalf of our customer airlines".

Worth knowing

CityJet is an ACMI/wet-lease operator: it has not flown scheduled services under its own "WX" code since 28 October 2018 and, per its About page, all current operations are flown for Scandinavian Airlines (SAS) from Copenhagen and Stockholm hubs. The contracting airline's policy applies — CityJet's contact page states explicitly that "special handling requests" for a flight shown as "Operated by CityJet" must go to the ticketing airline, and that CityJet cannot process customer service requests for those flights. Its site is reachable and complete but contains no accessibility, mobility-aid, baggage or dangerous-goods page of any kind, and no passenger phone number or email. A wheelchair user booked on a CityJet-operated CRJ900 should read the SAS (or other ticketing airline's) mobility-aid policy.
