Does the Sensor require any special handling when I'm travelling?
You may use your FreeStyle Libre System* while on an aircraft but make sure you follow any requests from the flight crew.
• Some airport full-body scanners include x-ray or millimetre radio-wave, which you cannot expose your Sensor and reader to.
To avoid removing your Sensor, you may request another type of screening. If in doubt about the type of security scan you are passing through, notify the Security Officer prior to proceeding through the airport security checkpoint.
• The Sensor can be exposed to common electrostatic (ESD) and electromagnetic interference (EMI), including airport metal detectors. You can keep your FreeStyle Libre 2 sensor on while going through these.
* FreeStyle Libre and FreeStyle Libre 2 systems are part of the same family of products.
