Travel home to Asia after surgery ... need advice

Posted by huilim @huilim, Mar 4, 2022

Hi ... does anyone have any advice as to where can I get a high calorie, low sugar nutritional supplement drink to bring on board the plane as I am flying back to asia (long gruelling 20 hours flight) after my surgery. Also, I don’t know if customs will let me bring liquid through? Have anyone had an experience as such? Need advice ... greatly appreciate it!

30 gram high protein drink. Ensure has several flavors as do other brands. Usually near the pharmacy in Walmart or Target. Ask the pharmacy for help.

I have never had this situation, but did some research.

Check the TSA site about exceptions to liquid rules. May want to get something from drs about medical needs.

There is a link on page to a form your can fill out prior to flight about special assistance.
