[QUOTE="Braxton, post: 1802089, member: 475106"] Hi thanks a lot for replying!! I imagine mini camping fridges may be too big to keep in hand luggage. I wouldn’t be able to get a visitor mid trip unfortunately. When I rang FRIO they said insulin starts to deactivate once put in a FRIO pack as the temperature is like 16-24 degrees so the insulin needs to be used in 28 days once put in the frio pack as it is not as effective after this period. This differs from what I thought as myself and my friend with type 1 have been travelling for longer periods of time and insulin has been fine to use for longer periods after 28 days when being transferred from the flight into a fridge once we arrived at our destination.
