Yes stress/ anxiety can cause frequent urination. But there are common other  causes such as urinary infection etc which needed to be ruled out. If you are sure that anxiety/ stress is the reason , reduce fluid intake , that way less urination when you are travelling . Compensate the daily water requirements of the body by having more fluids when possible .
