Q: Does anybody know how to bring refrigerated (Frio pack) insulin in a flight from US to EU?

I am going to travel a lot from US to EU and China as well.

I would like to know if there are special limitations for bringing any kind of refrigerated pack for insulin in flights from US or to US?

I've had no problem traveling internationally with my son's insulin stored in a Frio pack. I put the insulin in a plastic bag so it is easy to pull out for inspection and I carry the cartons with the prescription information in a bag with the Frio pack.
