Topic Explanation:
The discussion is about tips for flying with a stoma bag, specifically for someone who is traveling abroad for the first time after having a colonoscopy. The original poster is seeking advice on what kind of stoma bags to use and any other relevant travel tips.

Advice and Insights:
1. Ensure you have enough supplies for your trip. It's recommended to take twice what you think you will need.
2. Pack your supplies separately: one set in your carry-on and another in your checked luggage. Ostomy supplies typically do not count against your luggage total.
3. Make a list of your manufacturer's contacts in the countries you are visiting, as major brands are usually available worldwide.
4. Stay hydrated during your travels.
5. Consider the duration of your flight. If possible, limit your time in the air to 4-5 hours to avoid needing to use the airplane toilets, which are not ideal for changing or emptying a stoma bag.
6. Eat and drink lightly before and during the flight to minimize the need for bag changes.
7. Use flushable ostomy pouch liners for convenience. These liners can be inserted into your colostomy bag and flushed when you need to change them, though they are not suitable for septic tanks.
