How late in your pregnancy can you fly?

Depends on airline: Most airlines have a cutoff - usually anywhere from 32-34 weeks...Obviously they don't want you to labor or deliver on their plane...Yikes! overall, unless you absolutely have to, it's certainly safer and a whole lot less uncomfortable for you if you don't fly late in the third trimester. If you must fly, bring a copy of your prenatal chart...Just in case. Good luck!

Depends: Most airlines allow women to fly up to 36 weeks or so but you must check with the individual airline to be sure. Most doctors would be more comfortable with no later than around 30 weeks. The later it is the more likely you will be approaching your due date and deliver on the plane - very problematic as you might imagine! you should also speak with your doctor anytime you are planning to fly.
