Travel Smart with Your ATTO: How the Flight Kit Makes Air Travel Hassle Free

Air travel can be stressful enough without worrying about your mobility equipment. For ATTO owners, the freedom to explore the world shouldn't be limited by complex travel logistics or concerns about equipment safety. With the right protection, such as the ATTO Flight Kit, your travel experience transforms from potentially complicated to refreshingly simple.

The Challenge of Travelling with Mobility Equipment

Anyone who travels with mobility equipment knows the common concerns: Will my device be damaged during handling? How do I navigate airline regulations? What if something gets lost or delayed? These worries can overshadow the excitement of your upcoming adventure.

The ATTO's innovative design already makes it more travel friendly than traditional mobility scooters, but the Flight Kit takes convenience and protection to the next level. Let's explore how proper protection addresses every traveller's biggest concerns.

The Flight Kit: Your ATTO's Ultimate Shield

The Flight Kit goes beyond basic storage, it provides comprehensive protection for your investment. This super protective molded padded cover transforms your ATTO into a secure, airline ready package that gives you complete peace of mind. At just £239 (with VAT relief available for qualifying customers), it's an essential investment for any ATTO owner who travels.

Built for the Rigours of Travel

Air travel means your equipment will be handled by multiple people, moved through conveyor systems, and potentially stacked with other luggage. Baggage handlers are known for rough handling, but the Flight Kit's reinforced construction shields your ATTO from impacts, scratches, and the inevitable bumps of commercial travel.

Weighing only 0.99 kg (2.19 lbs) with dimensions of 40cm x 36cm x 16cm, the Flight Kit adds minimal bulk whilst providing maximum protection. The cover's durable materials safeguard against major breakage as well as minor damages, ensuring your ATTO arrives at your destination in perfect condition.

Versatile Protection Beyond Flying

The Flight Kit shields against weather, handling, and storage wear, making it perfect not just for airline travel but also for long-term storage at home. Whether you're storing your ATTO during winter months or protecting it from outdoor weathering, the Flight Kit provides year-round value.

Smart Design Features

One of the Flight Kit's most clever features is its ability to stay on whilst you wheel your ATTO in trolley mode. This means you don't have to remove and carry the cover separately, simply fold your protected ATTO and wheel it along like luggage.

When you're ready to ride, the Flight Kit conveniently fits behind the backrest, so it's always on hand when needed. The cover is easy to put on and take off, making transitions between protected transport and riding mode seamless.

Enhanced Safety Features

The Flight Kit includes reflective strips that add safety, providing extra visibility in low-light conditions. These rear safety reflectors help keep you visible during early morning or evening travel, adding an extra layer of security to your journeys.

Streamlined Airport Experience

The Flight Kit simplifies your airport experience significantly. Instead of explaining your mobility device to airline staff or worrying about special handling procedures, your ATTO appears as a well-protected piece of luggage. The professional appearance helps normalise the check-in process, reducing the likelihood of confusion or delays.

Making the Most of Your Investment

The ATTO represents a significant investment in your mobility and independence, typically over £2,000 for the scooter itself. The Flight Kit protects that investment whilst expanding the possibilities for where your ATTO can take you.

Global Adventures Await

With proper protection from the Flight Kit, the world becomes more accessible. Thousands of ATTO units are currently flying all over the world with their users, with 95 percent flying in the passenger cabin, stored either in the overhead compartment or in the crew's closet. Your ATTO can accompany you safely on any adventure, whether domestic or international.

Long-term Value

The Flight Kit pays for itself over time by preventing damage, reducing travel stress, and ensuring consistent positive experiences with airlines. A single incident of damage during travel could cost far more than the modest investment in proper protection.

Practical Tips for ATTO Air Travel with the Flight Kit

To maximise the benefits of your Flight Kit, consider these practical recommendations:

Before You Travel:

  • Install the Flight Kit on your ATTO before leaving home; it's easier in a familiar environment
  • Contact your airline 48 hours before departure to confirm mobility device transportation
  • Ensure your ATTO is fully charged (airlines typically require batteries to be charged)
  • Take photos of your protected ATTO before checking in as a condition record

At the Airport:

  • Keep your ATTO in the Flight Kit whilst wheeling through the airport in trolley mode
  • The cover stays on during check-in, providing continuous protection
  • Be prepared to demonstrate your ATTO's folding operation if requested
  • Consider requesting priority boarding if you'll need extra time

During Your Journey:

  • The Flight Kit's compact folded design (when not in use) allows easy storage
  • With a 15L capacity and maximum weight load capacity of 15kg (33 lbs), you can even store small accessories within the kit

Upon Arrival:

  • Inspect your ATTO and Flight Kit immediately upon retrieval
  • Test basic functions before leaving the airport
  • The Flight Kit's durability means it can withstand multiple trips
  • Store the Flight Kit on your ATTO's backrest for the return journey

Perfect for Storage at Home

Beyond travel, the Flight Kit serves as excellent protection for home storage. If you store your ATTO in a garage, shed, or any area where it might be exposed to dust, moisture, or temperature fluctuations, the Flight Kit provides year round protection. This dual purpose makes it an even more valuable investment.

The Freedom to Explore

Travel should expand your world, not limit it. The Flight Kit ensures that your ATTO enhances rather than complicates your travel experiences. With comprehensive protection and the convenience of trolley mode compatibility, you're free to focus on the joy of exploration.

Whether you're planning a business trip, family visit, or dream holiday, the Flight Kit removes the barriers that might otherwise limit your adventures. Your ATTO becomes not just a mobility aid, but a well protected passport to experiences worldwide.

Conclusion: Travel with Complete Peace of Mind

The ATTO Flight Kit transforms air travel from a potential source of stress into a streamlined, worry free experience. By protecting your investment and simplifying the travel process, this essential accessory opens doors to adventures worldwide.
