I had to travel by air for the first time since Crohns Disease required that I have a colostomy. I was terrified of what could happen if I needed access to a lavatory and one wasn’t available “right now!”
I feel for the guy if he REALLY needed to go, due to prostate issues. I REALLY know what it means when you have to get to a bathroom RIGHT NOW!
In my case, I explained my situation to the flight attendants before take-off, and that I might need to ignore the regulations, as well as the captain’s “fasten seatbelt” orders. I acknoledged that I would be taking my chances with safety, but the flight attendants were helpful and accommodating.

Of course they were accommodating, because the alternative is: “We’ll be landing shortly; please pass any remaining service items to the center aisle for collecion by a flight attendant.”
