BA treats cpap as a notebook, no need to apply at all. On the last flight I took to LHR, there were 3 pax (including me) using CPAP on board. So go figure.
Couple of data points:

I have flown JFK to Taipei/hk/Bkk via Eva air for last few yrs, always use Cpap inflight without issue. Once in a while on ANA, which does require a 24 hr notice.

Last month Eva flight delayed so switched to. CX flying Hk/JFK, dreaded sleeping without my hose, guess what - plugged it in, put on my mask and slept 7 hrs without incident!

On recent UA flight to Tokyo, FA came over after I slept and we traded info re Cpap models and masks. He flies with one for past 15 yrs.

I am in business class, Ymmv.
