Help with Formula

[PrincePatrick]

I am going to POFQ this October and trying to figure out the best way to handle the formula situation. My son drinks Good Start Soy and the problem is that it is not found everywhere. Thus my questions are:
1. Does anyone know of supermarkets in the area that I can call to see if they carry this?
2. If none do, I was thinking of sending it via UPS a few days before my arrival. Just wondering the logistics of this. Do I call the POFQ, Do I put my name on it..etc...

Any help will be great

Is it pre-mixed (liquid) formula? If so, it's going to be a bit heavy to ship.

You could contact Publix (major supermarket in the Orlando/WDW area) and ask if they carry it. There are several in the WDW area.

Regardless of liquid or powder, be sure you pack some in your carry-on. Probably enough for two days--just in case!

We traveled with a 14-week-old who was on some sort of liquid formula that they have difficulty finding. Mom packed enough for the trip + 3 days. But that was prior to baggage restrictions. Good news is she had room for souveniers!

Does the manufacturer of the formula have a website where you can order directly from them? This is what I did for DS. He was on Nutramigen, which is made by Enfamil. Through Enfamil's website, they sell single serve bottles of ready to feed formula. I ordered a week's worth of those and had them shipped directly to the hotel (before I ordered, I called the hotel and asked them how I should have the package addressed). I also sent a fax to the resort a day or two before our arrival letting them know that a package of formula would be arriving for us. I did this twice with no problems, once at OKW and once at VWL. Both times, the package was there waiting for us and bell services just brought it to the room once we got settled.
