Travelling in Third Trimester


I am planning on flying to my home country when I am 34 weeks pregnant on a flight that takes 9 hours. Has anyone done this and what advice can you give me?

Havnen't done it that late, but I know a lot of airlines will request a letter from your doctor saying that you are fit to fly physically.
There are some airlines that don't even let women on after 35 weeks (I think it is 35).

I'd check with the airlines hun. I went on holiday when I was 22 weeks (24 on the way back) and had to get a letter from the doctor for that.

As long as you are okay though, drink loads of water, sit in an aisle seat so you can stand when you want to, and wear flight socks.

Checked with airline. They said it's fine as long as I have a normal pregnancy (no twins or medical condition) and have a letter from my doctor.
