[QUOTE="urbanracer, post: 1417045, member: 140811"] Do not put insulin in the hold (it will freeze which means it cannot be used afterwards), keep it in your carry on luggage. Does he have some method of keeping insulin cool whilst in Greece? (eg: Frio travel wallet). Don't know what the temp is like in Greece at the mo' but even my test strips are not supposed to be stored above 30°C. The rules for travelling state that you need a letter from your quack to travel with sharps. In reality, I've flown many times and I've never been asked for it but maybe better to be prepared?

Do his friends know what to do if he goes hypo and do they understand that a hypo can be easily confused with having one too many drinks? [URL]http://www.diabetes.co.uk/travel.html[/URL] [/QUOTE]
