Sorry to hear this. I heard they instituted a 'new policy' -- can you elaborate? Did he get pre-clearance? Was he in biz or first class? Did he need their power or have his own battery.

I've used cpap on CX twice but that was back in late 2010 and early 2011 - on their JFK/HK routes in business class and all was fine.
