Screening Mobility Aid or Assistive Device

The statement of the law set forth above would not, however, prohibit you from examining a mobility aid or assistive device if, in your judgment, it may conceal a weapon or other prohibited item even if the mobility aid or assistive device does not activate the security system.

In the event a passenger’s mobility aid or assistive device activates the security system, you must conduct the security search of the passenger with a disability in the same manner as you would for other passengers who activate the system.
