New Airline Travel Security Information from ADA

Due to stepped-up airport security measures on August 10, 2006 concerning liquids and gels, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has issued new guidelines related to what passengers can and cannot bring on board the airplane. The TSA announcement specifically states that insulin will still be permitted aboard airplanes along with prescription medicine with a name that matches the passenger's ticket. The general guidelines for traveling with diabetes supplies are still in effect.

More information about traveling with diabetes supplies, which TSA has developed in conjunction with ADA's assistance, can be found here. These tips will help ensure the safety and convenience of travelers with diabetes, while also keeping the traveling community as a whole safe.
