I was trying to delete this but since this site won't let me, I have questions. I have never flown before and I don't know what the airport allows us to have as far as medical devices are concerned. I have to wear knee braces on both my knees and I use a cane to help me walk. Will I be able to take them with me or will I be made to leave these things behind? I will be flying to San Diego next month and I'm just trying to get all my ducks in a row lol.

Might be easier calling the airport and asking what their procedure is. Also get to the airport early in case of hold ups getting through security but I am sure you will be fine.

On a side note, I was travelling from Israel to Jordon once on holiday and there was an older guy who was taken off to hospital to be x-rayed because he had had a hip replaced and he kept setting the alarms off. We had to wait 4 hours !!

Oh how we laughed

Good luck for the journey. Please let us know what happens.

All your medical devices are allowed. Call your airline and tell them you will need wheelchair transport. They will have someone there to take you through security and to the gate. You should get priority boarding.

Believe me this is done all the time and it will make your journey so much easier!

Safe travels and best wishes!

Thank you Debbie Jean! I am definitely going to take your advice. Both of you guys responses are very helpful.
