Is bone marrow donation disqualifying? I can't imagine it would be, but

It should not be in and of itself. I assume that your concern is "how long
after I donate bone marrow do I have to ground myself". The answer is that
it depends on how you feel. I'd guess you wouldn't feel like flying the
same day, and probably shouldn't. But you'd probably feel OK in a day or
three. Like donating blood.
To be on the safe side, I would advise against scheduling an "important"
flight for a few days after.
I assume you're not flying for an airline -- if you are, they probably have
their own rules.
