Travelling with AS is entirely possible, but preparation is essential:¹

• Notify airlines or travel companies in advance if you need assistance. You should be able to ask for adjustments to make your journey and stay more comfortable.
• Plan for your medication, making sure you have enough for the duration of your trip and considering storage like cool bags.
• Carry copies of prescriptions and check local regulations—some countries restrict certain medications.
• Invest in travel insurance that covers pre-existing conditions.
• Be cautious about vaccinations —vaccines are not advised with all medications.
