Has anyone had to get Oxygen in Aruba
I have just been told that I have to use an oxygen tank at night when I sleep and if I get out of breath during the day. Since you can't bring your big oxygen tank with you on vacation, where do you go to rent a tank for 2 weeks in Aruba? What do you do on the plane? I'm trying to decide if I have to give up my vacations now.

There are several models of Portable Oxygen Concentrators that are permitted for use on aircraft. They are very common for those that may need oxygen.
