Engineer - then you didnt scroll down!

Passengers should carry a letter from their doctor confirming the need to carry syringes, needles and medication in the aircraft cabin. As security screening at airports is outside the control of British Airways, you should discuss a contingency plan with your Doctor to enable you to travel safely in the unlikely event that the authorities do not allow your equipment to be carried in cabin baggage.

Please note: The above information applies to passengers who need to carry syringes, needles, epipens and medication, in their hand luggage, for any medical reason.

Battery operated glucose monitors may be carried in hand luggage. If you are carrying these monitors you must obtain a Doctor's letter confirming your need to carry 'sharps' on board an aircraft.
