I know many of you have mentioned the xray and insulin being safe. However I know my son's pump company will void your warranty if you tell them you put in through x-ray screening and that the xray can harm the pump itself.
We just got off the wonder last week and my son is 7 1/2 on a pump. We did not have to fly but did not have any issues at the port at all. We actaully choose
DCL because of the wavephone and kids clubs
Relax and have fun!
How do I get my pump through airport security?
A:
While going through airport security, please keep these important things in mind. Your pump should not go through the X-ray screening that is used for carry-on or checked luggage. The new airport screening, Whole Body Imaging Technology, is also a form of X-ray. If you are chosen to go through this form of screening, you will need to disconnect from the pump at your skin site prior to the scan and request alternate methods of screening the pump other than using X-ray. Your infusion set may remain in place. For more information on traveling with pumps, in the United States, visit the American Diabetes Association website, You can also call your local airport or airline for security guidelines that may apply.
