hi there I work for an airline most airlines have different regulations but this is what my airline advises pregnant ladies:

For uncomplicated single pregnancies, we restrict travel beyond the end of the 36th week, and for twins, triplets etc., beyond the end of the 32nd week.
After your pregnancy has entered its' 28th week, we ask that you carry with you a letter from your doctor or midwife, stating the pregnancy is uncomplicated and confirming the expected date of delivery. In this letter, your doctor should state that you are in good health, that they are happy for you to fly, and that (in their opinion) there is no reason why you cannot fly.

have a look at the airlines web sites or contact them directly they will tell you everything you need to know

Yes. and with a doctors note you can travel in the last month of pregnancy if your doc sees fit to allow.

I think up until the last month you can travel!!

some airlines don't let pregnant women travel from 28 weeks others up to 32 weeks. always worth checking their websites as every airline is different

yes, I did. But it all depends on if the doctor allows it.. ask him/her first

It depends on your pregnancy-how well it is going. It depends on length of journey and where you are going to and it depends on each airline. Some will let you fly at 6 months and others wont. Make sure your insurance covers you to travel by air at the gestation period you're at. Best of luck to you or to whoever is pregnant.

Ask your doctor.
And if you are traveling close to delivery you will need a note from your doctor saying that you are in the clear to fly. I am pretty sure that you can fly up till the 8th month.

i think up to 7 months if i remember correctly. i think you can also travel on a plane with a dr's clearance after that.

I think its 8 months but you dont want your baby to be born on board do you? :)

When I was serving in the Army our wives were not allowed to travel on planes during the first 3 months and the 8th and 9th months

They are allowed, but pregnant women shouldnt travel in their eighth or nineth month.

Generallly upto 6th month. She could travel even later if she has a letter from her Ob-gyn certifying that she is fit for air travel.

Practically, if your tummy is not showing too much even during the late stages, you could still fly if you are feeling comfortable.
