[QUOTE="Owenn01, post: 2638432, member: 487412"] I would agree with much of what has been said above. I'd definitely go with a Frio Pen holder if you think you;ll be out in high temperatures for any length of time - I used one in Utah a few years ago when it was regularly above 40C and the pen was kept perfectly cool. I'm also a big fan of the reusable pens and cartridges - less space; less waste and the current 'all in ones aren't recyclable as far as I know so slightly more environmentally friendly. The hand luggage one also has some bonuses to it - on some internal Eu flights there is an incessant drive to get people to put their overhead bags into the hold; the 'sorry; I have insulin in there so it can't go in the hold' is usually enough to keep them at bay! Keeping insulin cold on an aircraft won't be a problem BTW - they maintain a very good temperature profile through the flight so you shouldn't need to worry about that. Have a great time though!
