[QUOTE="Bill_St, post: 1746393, member: 310899"] The Civil Airline Authority CAA, are not given to repeating myth and as the U.K. airline Passenger safety legislator, can be expected to know a great deal about aircraft and risks. Their statement for medical professionals (linked above) is clear “It is essential that the diabetic passenger carries adequate equipment and medication in their hand baggage. It is important that insulin is not packed in the hold baggage even if it is not being used during the flight as insulin in the hold may be exposed to temperatures that could degrade it and there is the potential risk of loss of baggage en-route. Insulin may be satisfactorily carried in a cool bag for even the longest sector. “ [/QUOTE]
