Claims are dealt with up to the airline’s legal limit of liability and must be supported by appropriate evidence of loss or damage.

Conditions of Carriage Article 14.3
A Special Drawing Right is an international monetary unit (fixed by the International Monetary Fund)‚ the value of which fluctuates daily and can be found in the Financial Times’ guide to world currency. EastAfrican will not accept liability for valuable items which you are not permitted to include in your baggage (see “baggage” above).

It is our policy that if your baggage is delayed for more than 24 hours on an outbound journey‚ you can spend up to $20 per day per person on essential items‚ for a maximum of three days. To claim this allowance‚ you must write to the company’s claims handling agents within 21 days of the relevant flight at the address provided to you by the EastAfrican handling agent at the airport where the delay was reported. All claims must be supported by documentary evidence of purchases made (e.g. receipts).

1. Passengers with specific requirements – disability‚ medical and health
   Passengers with specific requirements are those whose mobility is reduced due to physical incapacity (sensory or locomotory)‚ intellectual deficiency‚ age‚ illness or any other cause of disability. EastAfrican is unable to accept those passengers with a level of disability which requires the presence of a care assistant unless a care assistant is travelling with the passenger. A maximum of two disabled passengers can travel with one care Assistant.EastAfrican is not able to accommodate immobile/lift-off passengers. This is because the aircraft we operate are not fitted with special equipment for these situations and as a result‚ our insurance does not provide cover against any issues that might arise through our employees physically carrying a passenger.EastAfrican can‚ however‚ arrange to assist passengers who can be escorted on a wheelchair up to the aircraft door as long as they are able to climb the staircase- and provided we are informed at the time of booking.

Passengers with specific requirements who book their seats over the telephone must advise EastAfrican of their requirements at the time of booking. Passengers purchasing seats over the Internet should select the type of assistance they require via the flight confirmation email (Specific needs and access requirements). The airline requires a minimum of 48 hours notice to arrange assistance. It may not be possible to honour requests received less than 48 hours prior to the scheduled time of departure of a flight‚ as the airline may not be able to accommodate your needs. This could result in passengers being unable to travel. However‚ where possible‚ EastAfrican will endeavour to provide passengers with assistance when boarding and disembarking flights.

Passengers with specific requirements will not be allowed to sit in emergency exit rows of the aircraft in case of an emergency evacuation of the aircraft.

Passengers travelling with vital medication and/or medical equipment are permitted to carry up to 10kgs of medication and/or equipment free of charge in addition to their standard hold baggage allowance. The total amount of baggage carried per passenger cannot exceed 50kgs maximum.

To classify as vital medication and/or medical equipment the passenger would require medical documentation from their doctor confirming that the passenger must carry this medication and/or equipment.

The medication/medical equipment must be carried separately from the passenger’s standard hold baggage to ensure ease of recognition at check-in.

Passengers with children are given priority boarding and unaccompanied minors between the ages of 6 and 17 are escorted by a friendly member of our staff.

   Passengers travelling with upper limbs in cast‚ waist and above‚ will only require one seat to travel.Adult passengers travelling with lower limbs in cast‚ waist and/or full leg plaster‚ must purchase three seats in total‚ per journey‚ to travel. This will enable the leg to be elevated during the flight and reduce swelling.

Passengers travelling with lower leg in plaster‚ below the knee only‚ will only require one seat.

Child passengers travelling with lower limbs in cast are to be dealt with as above but the length of the cast will need to be determined to decide whether they would require one‚ two or three seats to enable their leg to be elevated during the flight.

Passengers travelling with a plaster cast that has been fitted for less than 48 hours then the cast needs to be split (the split need to run along the entire length of the cast) If the plaster cast been fitted for more than 48 hours there is no requirement for the cast to be split.
