Hello

Just wondering if any of you know if you can bring needles and syringes, swabs and spoons (basically 2-3 exchange bags without any prescription for medicines) inside a luggage that you check in (not cabin luggage) if travelling through UK, Canada, USA and the Carribeans. I would think the most problems would arise in the USA, where security scans your bags even if you are just transiting (often making you lose your connecting flight).

Any idea? Or do you know who I should call to find out apart from the airlines?

Thank you
 
Needles and syringes in Canada require a prescription - although oddly, you can obtain them for free at InSite and other needle exchanges. Regardless, needles could be used as a weapon and would prob not be let on airplanes, especially without an Rx.
 
Calling the airlines is probably your best bet.

We don't cover legal queries like this I am afraid and rules may well be different for different countries, maybe different airlines.

Closed, pm me with any queries.
