Message: <blockquote data-quote="Deleted member 527103" data-source="post: 2685131">I would not put ANY of my diabetes supplies in my suitcase to be put in the hold. I have had too many cases go missing over the years. They have always turned up eventually but days of uncertainty without my clothes is nothing compared to days of uncertainty without my pump supplies.In my experience, patch pump supplies take up far less space than tubed pump supplies (tubed pumps need tubes and cannulas as well as cartridges whereas patch/pod supplies are just the patch/pod and a syringe to fill it). But even when I used a tubed pump, I kept everything in my hand luggage and maybe sacrificed a change of trousers (I used to carry a clean set of clothes in my hand luggage) in preference for peace of mind on the diabetes front.</blockquote>
