    Flying with Gear

    Anybody have any experience flying w/gear? Too risky? Better to send through the mail internationally?

    Any help is appreciated.

    If you plan on mailing it to yourself your packaging is gonna have to be top notch for it to get through customs.

    I travel all the time with it....never had a problem domestically. Dont know if I would try the customs coming back internationally. I have kept prescription boxes that I put my stuff in plus cold packs for the gh/slin which has been just glanced at...lots of diabetics travel.

    You can buy needles at any drug store in Canada. If your going to smuggle it into Canada, remember that it is a controlled substance and if caught will face the same charges as any other illegal drug.

    i know this has been brought up before, obviously flying with gear is risky no matter what you do....

    but how the hell does Ronnie get away with travelling so much- he takes a lot more stuff than regular users do- and - he travels a lot more than most people do apparently.

    yeah, but the problem would be that there could be no argument that they needed it for medical purposes, so if this is the case, doctors could easily be fired/ lose their license.
