What are the restrictions on flying while pregnant? I am 3 days late & flying to UK in Sept.?

Answer 1

I think airlines do not allow heavily pregnant women on flights unless they can show evidence from their GP that they're ok to fly. This is to protect themselves against claims for injuries due to DVT and other things.

Plus, it's not a good thing if you suddenly go into labour mid-flight.

Answer 2

most airlines let people fly up to 28 weeks. some go up to 32 weeks. check each airlines policy. if you need to fly for medical reasons a GP can write a supporting letter but the airline can still turn you away even with a letter if they dont want to carry you.

Answer 3

Most airlines will require a letter from your doctor after 7 months. The pressure from the altitude can make your labor start. The other reason is that you would be soooo uncomfortable in a small chair and closed in a cabin. I would talk to your doctor.

Answer 4

3 days late in what context your 3 days late giving birth or your 3 days late for your period which is it? You can fly up to 7 month so hope this helps

Answer 5

Most women can fly while pregnant as long as they are not having a problem pregnancy. It is not advised to fly later in the pregnancy when you are close to your due date.

Answer 6

It depends on the airline and some of them will need a letter from your doctor. I would ask the airline directly for their own policy, and also speak to your doctor about it too.

Answer 7

you can fly anytime before your seventh month or the airline can tell you no if they think your to many months to fly its really up to them but i would ask your doctor.

Answer 8

You will definitely have had your baby by then. They will not let you go over 2 weeks past your due date.

Answer 9

You can fly anytime before your third trimester.

Answer 10

you would proberly had the baby by them..
