Airline travel. When you're pregnant, the safest time to travel is during your second trimester (18 to 24 weeks), when your risks for miscarriage and preterm labor are lowest. During your third trimester, it's best to stay within 300 miles of home, in case of sudden changes that need medical attention. Airplane travel tips include the following: Check with the airline for its requirements before you book a flight. Some airlines do not allow women more than 35 weeks pregnant to fly. Carry written documentation of your due date when traveling. Some airlines ask to see this information. Wear your seat belt strap over your lower lap/upper thighs.
Some do not restrict travel at all, no matter what stage of pregnancy a women is in, and others start to restrict at 7 months, although the majority restrict around 36 weeks. In the case of twins, some airlines will restrict travel for pregnant women at the 7th or 8th month rather than the 9th because of early labor.
