love2traveljen Posted August 10, 2015 #1 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Hey all I have a two-year-old that enjoys her Pedisure in the morning. Wanting to bring some on board with me. I know with the new bottled beverage policy would I be able to bring these on for her? They will be sealed. Has anybody tried this? Been successful? I'm assuming that allow it because it's for a child but I just want to make sure because they're not cheap you know to be discarded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
springs741 Posted August 10, 2015 #2 Share Posted August 10, 2015 It comes in cans. That would be your best option. I do not want this to sound like I am flaming you but it is a beverage for a passenger. No different than the water that is now banned. While your kiddo enjoys it and you may have good reason to supplement her diet there are other options. As I said PediaSure comes in cans. There are also powdered supplement that can be mixed with milk or juice if your child is nutritionally compromised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mzloolue Posted August 10, 2015 #3 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Have you contacted the Special Needs department? I would call them. For a young child you do not want to upset their routine any more that necessary. I can get water onboard, but I am pretty sure that no children's supplements are available so it is really not the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelkel2 Posted August 10, 2015 #4 Share Posted August 10, 2015 I agree, contact the special needs department and get a doctors note if necessary. I wouldn't want to change the routine of a child if there's a way around it. Especially if a child is nutritionally compromised. Sometimes it's just a small change and that's all it takes to really throw them off. I would consider Pediasure something "medical related". Hopefully the cruise line sees it the same way. Hopefully they would allow it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coevan Posted August 10, 2015 #5 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Pedisure is a nutritional supplement, I doubt it would fall under "medical related." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm interested in what the answer is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAMOMOF2 Posted August 10, 2015 #7 Share Posted August 10, 2015 I am glad I found this. I would have never thought about this issue since they are in cans. My son is entirely tube fed with pedicure and I always bring a case. I guess I need to call carnival to make sure no issue with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrannyFlamingo Posted August 10, 2015 #8 Share Posted August 10, 2015 (edited) Hmm my moms doctor wrote a prescription for pediasure while she was undergoing chemo so insurance would pay for it. Might depend on why the child is drinking it. Edited August 10, 2015 by GrannyFlamingo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denas Posted August 10, 2015 #9 Share Posted August 10, 2015 My son is also tube fed. Right on the pediasure enteral formula for tube feeding it states "medical food". We have never even thought about it and never had anyone question it when we bring it on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
love2traveljen Posted August 10, 2015 Author #10 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Thanks everybody for the comments, my daughter does not have a great eating habits so I supplement her with those and she has such on a routine of course I don't want to break it. I'm going to email them and find out. I brought it on last year with no questions asked, but now they have implemented that new role in July I'm not too sure. Once I find out I'll post a reply here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has a little girl and should understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
