"A Passenger owned Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) Machine is permitted. (Note: This CPAP machine must be battery operated)" There doesn't seem to be an additional charge for medical equipment carried by passengers.

We will be able to deal with the 20 kg limit on luggage but I have a portable CPAP machine that I would like to take on board as a second piece of hand luggage.
Is there a SAA policy for taking medical devices or will this be considered excess baggage? I did a search on CPAP in this forum and it returned no hits.
