Hi all just a quicky 

Wondering from any long term peg users does this prevent trips abroad for holidays or is there  way Round this.

Taking feed with you on a plane, how would that work

Customs Are there restrictions etc.

Or Is it Europe based,  drive eurotunnel drive ? or would there be restrictions this way ?

Obviously holidaying in UK should not cause any problems11 just chuck a couple of packs in the back of the card so go.

Thanks for any tips or advice. 

Hugs to all x 

  • You can take feed in the hold and hand luggage. You just have to tell the airline in advance

  • Good evening Roy, as Dani mentioned take your prescription with you and they will let you take the feed on board for your journey and the rest can go with your luggage. I have had no issues with it although the bottles are x-rayed to see what is inside, happy holidaying, take care.
