Dr. Young at Shore Dental SleepCare explains how patients can travel with their CPAP machines following just a few simple steps.

Dr. Young from Shore Dental SleepCare provides us some tips on how to make traveling with your CPAP machine easier. This article from verywellhealth.com outlines some simple steps on how we can get through Airport Security with our vital CPAP machines. It is vital that we still use our CPAP machine every night, even though we may be traveling for business or pleasure.

First, to keep your CPAP machine from getting damaged during the flight, we should always have it on as a carry-on bag. CPAP machines and other medical devices are not considered personal items by the Department of Transportation, so you may carry them along with another carry-on bag.
