Can a woman who is 6 weeks into pregnancy travel in a long distance flight?(around 6 hrs flight)

Yes: There is no contraindication but a word of caution. You are more at risk for blood clots by hormones and by impediment of blood flow. Keep moving your legs, stand up every now and then, to avoid stagnation of blood flow and avoid constricting clothes.
