exactly !!! I fly BA overseas. They not only let you sue the airplane power ports. During the pandemic I could use is without my “mask” and as my CPAP uses an N99 filter, I was safer breathing through my cpap nasal mask than wearing a regular mask. The use of medical CPAP is considered a medical exemption to the mask policy when it was in place
On air Canada if you need to use it you can you just need and external battery supply which anyone with CPAP should have. Mine without using the humidifier can run in batter for over 6 hrs
