Traveling with toys can feel weird at first, but you’re far from the only person who’s done it! These are our best tips for keeping things discrete and easy. 🧡

08/19/2022

We want to know: What’s the weirdest, most unexpected incident you’ve ever experienced on a plane?

08/17/2022

How often have you felt pressured to restrict what you eat, for fear that you’ll gain weight during your trip?

What if we told you that it’s okay to ✨ENJOY✨ your food, and that part of getting the most out of any travel experience is letting yourself have the full experience — including freedom to eat what you enjoy?

There is a powerful cultural message that tells us that weight gain is a failure to be avoided at all costs… but what if we allowed our bodies to simply exist as they are?

After all… they are a vessel for this amazing experience we call life! 🧡

Whether it’s before, during, or after your trip, consider that part of living life to the fullest is giving ourselves permission to enjoy the life we have. If dieting impacts your mental health and ability to enjoy life, it may not be what’s best for you after all.

Some food for thought! 🍕

A recent wave of “gender critical” hashtags on Twitter have called into question whether or not transgender people should be included in the LGBTQ+ community.

Some have gone so far as to begin referring to our community as the “LGB community,” erasing both transgender people and our collective history.

As a q***r-led company, we want to make our stance crystal clear: There is no LGB without the T. Transgender people have always been a part of this struggle, and they will always be included in our community.

Any attempt to erase the significant contributions trans people have made to our cultural and collective history is transphobia, plain and simple. And we won’t stand by it.

Vocal support of transgender people is, unfortunately, more important than ever. And our hope and expectation is that every business that had a rainbow logo during Pride month will continue to be vocally supportive of transgender people every month of the year.

To our trans siblings: We see you, we love you, and we will do everything in our power to fight for you.

Traveling with testosterone? We spoke with experts — including a TSA agent — to get clarity on the best way to transport your T.

Check this thread for advice and best practices. 🧵

❗️ Inform the TSA officer if you do not want your liquid medication to be screened by X-ray or opened. Additional steps will be taken to clear the liquid and you will undergo additional screening procedures including a pat-down and screening of other carry-on property.

➕ Carry a copy of your prescriptions in your carry-on, purse, or wallet when traveling.

➕ You cannot carry syringes without proof of their use. Keep injectable medications like insulin or testosterone physically on you when going through TSA.

➕ Keep syringes and medicines in the original packaging with the manufacturer's information — this helps airport security identify them easily.

➕ It can be helpful to tell the TSA agent that you have the prescription. Something along the lines of, “I have some medical supplies in here including syringes and testosterone.” Or “I have a prescription in this plastic bag.”

➕ Label items associated with your liquid medications. Keep all of your medical items together separately from the rest of your belongings for seamless access.

If something goes wrong, Upaway is here for you! Keep our number on hand: 213-545-0903. 📲

We're also happy to file a discrimination complaint on anyone's behalf. Please reach out to us if we can be of help. 🧡

Seat size isn’t just a matter of comfort. For disabled passengers and travelers of size, it’s an access issue. Anyone who flies — regardless of their body size or ability — should be able to fly without experiencing pain or humiliation. ♿️

When airlines refuse to accommodate all bodies, they are upholding a system that values some bodies over others. And that will never be socially just or okay in our book. 👊🏻

08/09/2022

Is it just us? Shoutout to all the anxious travelers who are rattled by turbulence — we know the feeling all too well. 🙈
