Hi @Jsich no worries at all. Dexcom will complain it “can’t reach the server” and may show an error on the “connection” tab but it will work fine. In fact there’s no cell service in the airplane either so you may see that error in flight. I hope you have a safe trip and have fun!

Got it. Thanks, Joe. I tend to get myself all worked up over travel with diabetes (Will my insulin stay cool enough? Will I be able to find something to eat that is gluten and dairy free…? Will I forget something important?). But you really helped me on my first trip as a diabetic almost 6 years ago, and what I remember most is that you said HAVE FUN! 🙂
