I have flown a couple times this summer with Fluid in my band. I had no problems whatsoever. I've heard of some people drinking hot tea or Water after they get off the plane and before they eat something just to be careful.

Have a fun trip and happy anniversary!! Always wanted to go to Hawaii... Looks beautiful.

I flew within the week of banding and was fine. It really depends on stress levels, etc too. Even if you do get a little tighter, you should be okay, but most seem to be fine flying.

Just remember, if you are tight for the first day or so, just stick to liquids :)
