I have a few questions,
We'll be flying with Medication for Mariska's MAW trip. I dont really know what I need to do in order to take them with me. I will be glueing them to me since they cost more then my morgage! yikes huh!.
Do I just need a doctors note?
We'll also by flying little ones 4 and 7 months. Do I need to worry about car seats? Would they count as a check in? Can I rent them?.... do I want to? haha so many questions. Also if I rent them and MAW picks us up what do the provide the for the ride to the air port?
Every time I get a chance to sit and read I'm worn out and my eyes wont focus long enough to read.
maybe time for glasses.
Melinda... hey.. it's Andrea.
We fly with Owen's meds all the time. I always take a lunch box (ice chest) and put some frozen gel pack ice packs inside to keep the compounds cold. I have never had an issue with security. They do open them all and check for chemicals, but we're always fine. YOu don't need a note for those. Definetly keep everything ON BOARD with you that you don't want to lose.. ie. Meds, (I can't remember if M. is Gtube fed) but any of those supplies, ect.
I took Owen's carseat with us, since he is so darn picky. We had a limo pick us up and take us to the airport. I did curbside check in and just checked the seat. Picked it up in Orlando and put it in the rental car. The rental car company said we got free car seat rentals with the car, so that's another option. I would take your own.
We also took Owen's stroller with us. We pushed it up to the gate and checked it at the gate after we boarded the plane. As soon as we got off teh plane, it was waiting for him. I know you get free
stroller rentals at the parks too, as another option.
You will arrive in Orlando and meet a GKTW volunteer. They will take you to baggage claim and get you a luggage cart. Then they will take you to the rental car area and you will pick out a rental car. Owen picked a van.
The car seats are there, or you will have your own from baggage claim. Then you load them up and drive yourself to GKTW.. map will be provided (it's easy to find).
Let me know if you have any more questions!
You can hit me up on Facebook too. I know I had a MILLION questions!
New Drama already provided the GKTW schedule. Owen LOVED all the activities so much. You'll see New Drama at GKTW!!
