Well firstly, many thanks to everyone who has responded to my thread.
We plan to travel via Washington Dulles to Manchester UK. I want to travel non-stop.
Concerning my sugared drink, it would be imperative to have one with me. My sugar levels can drop so low, that candy may not work in time. I have been diabetic for over 40 years, and those sensations of knowing a seizure is happening, has dissipated. Any further thoughts on that would be greatly appreciated.
Regarding the luggage, i will ask the travel agency about that, when we book.
Thanks.
