Flying and post RNY

You asked if there is anything else to worry about?  Worrying is my specialty; sorry to those you grow weary of my main topic but here it goes:  my plane trip seven months post-op and staying in a motel for four days involved a digestive system backup (constipation).  Increase your water, get in as much walking as time allows, and you may avoid this distraction.  

Thank you everyone...i am flying from Prince Edward Island to Calgary...about 12 hrs in total with stops.  Your suggestions were great. As usual this place rocks with support and I am humbled and grateful.

I doubt that clotting is a problem, but if you're worried you should get up and walk around as much as possible. There are also tons of exercises you can do that will help.

There are tons of things in the airport to grab. I usually buy cheese or nuts to take on the plane. I was flying four months after surgery I was dine. It was great. 

I still had the phobia thinking I wasn't going to fit. 

I cried when the seat belt fit me with 7 inches to spare. 

My ass, although still quite large, has a difficult time sitting for extended periods of time.  I flew in Business class to Japan last October, and I'm so glad that I brought this cushion:

It's easy to pack and you blow it up to use it.  It's made by Hummingbird and I recommend it.
