I have travelled minimally since I've been on Arikayce for MAC (with underlying bronchiectasis), but have thought about how to handle the situation. I have nebulizer equipment that can be boiled and sterilized (Pari LC Plus and Monaghan AeroEclipse XL) and have a Procter Silex hot pot (also called an electric kettle) that can boil water, and thought that this would be a good solution when travelling. I see that there are now collapsible, space saving silicone kettles available as well (Amazon)! The nebulizer equipment provided by insurance generally cannot be boiled or sterilized without melting/deforming, so I switched to equipment used by CF patients, the gold standard in airway clearance, so that I could sterilize my equipment. I use a baby bottle sterilizer daily and then don't have to worry about adequate cleaning, rinsing with sterile water, etc. It makes life much simpler.
