We have a family wedding in another city next month and it needs a flight. I'll be around 24 weeks then. Is flying safe at this stage or should i avoid? planning to ask my gynac but want to hear real experiences first.
I flew for work in my second trimester and it was totally fine. Most airlines allow it till around 36 weeks but they may ask for a fit to fly letter later on. Just check with your gynac before booking and keep moving your legs during the flight.
The second trimester is usually considered the safest window to travel. That said, it really depends on whether your pregnancy is low risk, so your doctor's clearance matters most here. I always carried my reports while travelling.
I asked my hospital before a flight and they gave me clear advice plus a letter. Definitely confirm the airline's policy for your week and get the doctor's go ahead. Better to have it all sorted in advance.
