| I tend to go a bit higher than normal when flying, about 20-30pts more than normal. Maybe it's the stress of traveling? Anyway, I will normally take a gallon zip lock bag and put all of my D supplies in one bag to go on the conveyor alone. Insulin, sryringes, pens, pen needles, my frio pack, testing supplies, (I tape the prescriptions for the insulin on the inside of the bag facing out - proof - makes things go more quickly and smoothly through security.) I also took a juice box in that bag last time and a tube of cake icing. (I use this instead of glucose gel - cheaper and works just as fast.) The agent didn't care about the juice but told me the icing wasn't going to cut it. I told her it was for glucose and she said "oh, no problem!".
Go have fun! Don't worry!
