CPAP Distilled Water for Cruise in Hungary
 
I'm traveling on a Viking River Cruise along the Danube River from Budapest, Hungary to Passau, Germany this summer. I need to bring my CPap Machine and want to know if I'll be able to purchase Distilled Water along the way, or should I bring along a bottle in my luggage? My machine requires that I use the humidifier.

Every CPAP w/ humidifier I've seen it is OK to use bottled and/or tap water (assuming safe tap water) for limited periods.

Yes.


Also, you can easily buy distilled water at the grocery store (check to make sure that it doesn't have floral scent added to it) or auto parts store (used for mixing with coolant).

Thank you, janisj and sparkchaser for your responses! I will take the information into consideration as I travel to Europe.

We have easily foind disgilled wayer in Wurope, even in small village markets. It is often located with laundry supplies as it is used in steam irons. For a short period such as three weeks. In rural China, , we have used bottled water without any problems.
