[nagdu] {Disarmed} Your Travel Through Orlando Airport

[Marilyn tucci]

Hi Marsha,
I have friends that travel with CPAP machines and medication and it 
takes them a while to put everything back going through security. I only 
use an inhaler and I left my nebulizer home .I know they have asked 
friend to take there hearing aids out  who are also blind .
