As all of us that have "elders" to travel with, the less they have to deal with the better. Our "elder" was to be gone for 3 weeks. She carried on with her all her perscription bottles, with 30 days' of medications ( just to be on the safe side). In her bag, she put her daily individual container sets. Then when she arrived, she made out her containers. This way she had the best of all worlds, and there were no questions asked. I realize it would have been easier to just do out the containers and take your chances. But if you have ever traveled with "elders"- they are normally not comfortable with travel, tend to strive to "follow the rules", and get very upset if there are any troubles.

Good luck with your travel- rlb
