Libre on holiday
- Thread starter MitchJ
- Start date
I don’t know particularly about the Libre but I always include all my diabetes paraphernalia in my hand luggage. I never want to risk it getting stuck or redirected and not arriving at the destination.
I have carried a few Libre in hand luggage. I leave them in the bag to go through security. They have never been queried and always work fine afterwards.

If you want to make sure it arrives put it in your hand luggage. Assume that anything in your hold luggage is at risk of not arriving.

What about taking a spare in case one fails?
Or if you still have more than a week left on your current one and going away for two weeks?
So my current one will run out while I'm on holiday and need to take a replact

I think a general message is take twice as much as you think you will need, spare of everything.
I understand. My questions were directed to the poster who suggested wearing your Libre.
