Travel with oxygen

Cool temperatures might make you consider travel afar but what about your oxygen?

In the UK the flowers, such as daffodils and crocus, suggest that it is spring, but it seems the weather can’t quite decide if it is ready to leave winter behind.  This often makes us think of catching some early sunshine perhaps in warmer climes. However this can be fraught with worry if you are an oxygen user or if you suffer from breathlessness.  The good news is that the team at Pure O2 have lots of experience in making all the arrangements to enable you to take your oxygen when you travel, whether you are flying, cruising or travelling by rail or road.

Renting a portable oxygen concentrator for your travel

Have you considered renting a portable oxygen concentrator for your travels?  Not only will using oxygen help your breathing and increase your mobility, but it may also help to put your mind at rest.  A rest and some relaxation is often what we want from a holiday isn’t it? If that’s what you are looking for, but you or a member of your family or travelling party require oxygen then you need to have a chat with our friendly team of oxygen experts. They are very experienced in organising oxygen requirements for travel and will contact the airline or operator to ensure they are expecting you and your oxygen when you climb aboard, as this customer explains…

“You have been most helpful in arranging the oxygen that my lovely Ma needs. I feel confident now for future trips for her, knowing help is but a phone call away.
Thanks again for taking the time and trouble for calming our minds, knowing she will be adequately aided with breathing whilst we are away”

All you have to concern yourself with is packing your suitcase and carrying out all the usual holiday preparations. 

Do I have to rent my oxygen for travel or can I buy my own machine?

Whether you choose to rent or buy your oxygen for travel, the Pure O2 team will send your portable oxygen concentrator out to you in advance so you have time to get used to using it. Any questions you may have you can contact one of our helpful team who will be able to answer your queries around the clock.  You will never feel like you are left on your own to work things out, even if you are in a different time zone. You can see our selection of rental machines on our relevant webpage or if you prefer to purchase your own machine take a look at our ex demo models or new portable oxygen concentrators.
