Actually, it's not a good idea to take a flight on any pressurized aircraft a day or so after diving, though that will also depend on what type of diving you've done. A lot of newer dive computers -- even mine, for that matter, and its not so new -- offer FLY/NO FLY displays that account for your dive depths and times and calculate when you're good to get back in the air.
