A member asked:

Which week of pregnancy is the best for traveling by airplanes?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Jeff Livingston answered

Specializes in Obstetrics and Gynecology

Airline rules: Most airlines will allow travel less than 36 weeks. Your doctor may want you to stop travel earlier than that. Travel increases the risk of blood clot formation in the legs.
