    I have flown out of DIA weekly for years. More times then not with a carry on and I put my vial and pins through the X-ray every tim. I haven’t been stopped once. If you’re checking a bag, it’s even easier. They’re not looking for a 10 ML bottle of sus, they’re looking for explosives, bricks of cocaine, cash and even lithium batteries. I get your being cautious but I’ll at least share my anecdotes with you. I’ve flown in and out of almost every major airport in the contiguous US and have never been stopped once.

    Food for thought.

    I get I’m just some dude on the internet, but I’m a business traveler through and through. I wouldn’t blink, again...especially if it’s a checked bag

    This kinda makes me feel silly for going out of the way to get an empty insulin vial and put my test in it when i flew. I thought for sure someone would at least ask about it, and no one would question a diabetic taking insulin with them on a plane. Turns out no one asked, just got waved through. But i guess better safe than sorry. At least i had a good explanation if i was questioned. I agree with the other guys if you're gonna be gone for 7-10 days just pin a higher dose the day you leave and a higher dose the day you get back then business as usual.
