Hey Matt.

You have to order them, ahead of time. AllOddBall Aquatics sells them, as
do a fwe other places. Do a froogle search for "Kordon Breathable Bags."

Since you don't have them now, and are leaving soon, you may want to just
use regular fish bags. The other trick (learned from Bob Bock) is to ship
the fish home before hand, in regular bags, styro, etc. That way... you
don't have to worry about them on the airline.

JW.
