Are sharps boxes available for the cabin on RCI does anyone know? My friend has to take her medication with her and wondered whether they'd give her a sharps box or if she'd have to go all the way to the Med Centre.

She has to take them on the plane too... the med is not allowed in the hold apparently. She has a doctors note...

Thanks for any advice.. happysm

I have my own sharps boxes on perscription from the chemist. I just pack them in luggage to take away with me.

Will pick up a new one before we leave for cruise so i can take it empty.
