(the lithium battery section- "For mobility aids where the lithium-ion battery is installed as an essential part of the device, there is no watt hour limit for the battery"

(last paragraph)

14 CFR 382 (ACAA) was amended and gives each airline the opportunity to make rules for these devices that have li-on batteries larger than the "removable" device batteries.
...and the list goes on... As I have said several times in numerous posts, IF its truly a mobility aid, IF you legitimately use a Segway as such, and IF the airline has put a policy in place after the PHMSA, ICAO and IATA changes about li-on batteries on mobility devices...just call the airline you use and ask.
Happy travels!
