I'm flying from AMS-CVG with layover in IAD. I read thru all the posts briefly and did not see my question so figured I would go ahead and ask to see if anyone has suggestions. After reading the TSA page, I understand taking prescription med is ok in your carry-on as long as it is all labeled with your name.I also carry a medical need form from my Dr. My concern is that I need to take some narcotics in vials that are liquid for my condition.I don't want to pack them in carry on for fear they will get stolen. I can pack the syringes in my check-in, no problem, but I do wonder about my medicine. Also they don't make ziplok bags here in Holland. What do you do in a case like that? My other meds won't all fit into a 1-quart ziplok bag even if I did have one. Wonder what you do in a case like that? I also have to travel with an urn of ashes from my daughters cat. I have no idea how or where to address that and if they would think its gunpowder? I would hate for them to open the urn and go through the contents. Has anyone had expereince with any of this?
I want to avoid any stress and be prepared for any encounter, or at least try to. I am not sure what security is like in IAD and I figure that will be the place I am questioned if there are any. Thanks in advance for any advice others could share!
