And that depends on the person. Xanax would have sent my dad over the edge. It WOULD have been a problem. Seroquel was problematic (and I blame the docs for part of it 'cause they stopped Seroquel cold-turkey). Meds that work for some don't work for others.

I know about the xanax. And most calming drugs.Thank you anyway for mention it.

Any long trip is very stressful. Just want to know as much as I can before we decided .
I do live so far away from Sweden and it is going to be a lot of difficult decisions to make .
I misunderstood the "pick her up", too. I thought it was on this end rather than escorting. That will go a long way to ease issues.

As far as TSA, it really will be YMMV. Some screeners will do well, others won't.

Are you bringing her from Sweden? If so, you also need to think about how CBP will treat here.
