Medication on Boats/Cruises & International Water

[Busy4BTC]

Does anyone have any idea when it comes to cruises? Taking meds with you?!

Thanks

Welcome @Busy4BTC and while I have no experience of this a quick look on the net looks like its not allowed at all assuming you mean MC which I find quite alarming and I'll be interested to see what any other members experience of this is .

EDIT: This isn't correct, see post further down:

Depends on what flag the ship is flying - or more specifically, which country the vessel is registered in, and that nation's own law. If it's flying the Red Duster for Britain, it's permitted under UK law (which is still the effective legal jurisdiction while in international waters).

If it's registered in a country where you can otherwise travel legally with MC, you should be okay.

However you also need to check the laws of each country whose waters you'll be entering, to figure out if it's legal there too. If it's not, you could literally be pulled up on international drug trafficking charges if caught.

In general it's best querying the cruise-line directly to avoid all risk.

Shame, I was under the impression it would be off the menu but let's see if anything changes in the near future. I'm optimistic for change

 

[GrownHealth]

It does seem a bit draconian and I half expected to see it was out of date or something, I'm optimistic for change too on a number of levels but it's dragging it's feet

Welcome @Busy4BTC

Maritime law way more complex than our pay grades here! These laws are the oldest so you will be in for a long wait before change, if any.

 

[Busy4BTC]

Yeah I know they fall under a different category but for some reason I think it will probably fall into the discretion of the cruise provider.

Not expecting change but I'm sure there's loopholes with the archaic laws

I like your style. Shipping are notorious *unts. They made everyone take the needle as part of their T&C and refused refunds. I think we really need an insurance product that can help with matters like these.

Glad I wasn't looking for cruises during convid then. Managed to swerve all jabs thankfully. Respect everyone's individual decision, as long as they permit mine

Post-op under heavy anesthetic, I was wheeled to some big shot doctor there (had office) to explain why I wasn't taking the jab... only by flattering his ego and using my risk based argument (I don't go out) was the only way to get out of there. Horrific.

Damn node sounds like a traumatic exp.

Hospitals scare the life out of me these days. And I'm a t1 diabetic so I try stay as healthy as I can to stay away.

Excited the postie has just delivered a glass bit for my mighty. I've been using this vape for nearly ten years now. Trying to vape more and combust less

The bubbler on the mighty is what helped me knock smoking on the head in the end ,made it so much easier as I could use higher temps and take deeper breaths,enjoy

 

[Busy4BTC]

I've just had a blast with it. Popped in freezer for half hour before hand too.

Not that impressed.
Well put it this way I had a vape.
Felt underwhelmed and then just made a warhead instead.
Will try again later

Maybe cheaper elsewhere but this is where I got it.

Just had a blast on this to calm me down. I put some RSO in it, flavoured with GSC.

 

[GrownHealth]

RSO with GSC very nice , the modern day G & T let's hope it chills you pal.

"In general it's best querying the cruise-line directly to avoid all risk." 100%. Their T&Cs are usually the issue, you can see it on their websites. We had to research them during Covid as P&O really took the piss. An anachronism. Slave drivers mentality like all the "little fenix co" so called disruptors. Unlimited funding to change the worlds behaviour and trample on our rights.
