Are there restrictions on air travel after open RNY surgery?

I'm not sure if this is an issue or not but we have planned to take a trip to Finland to visit my wife's family. I was thinking of doing it while I was out of work for my surgery. Should I be concerned with traveling so far after surgery and is two - three weeks after surgery too soon to be traveling? The flight is about 8 hours and I'm usually fairly comfortable on a plane. I don't have a problem walking around the cabin if I have to. Thanks for your help! :-)
