I am stopping overnight. The airline told me that they will let you onboard up to 32 weeks, after that you need a dr's permission.

kbrooke1231 - 1285 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) My understanding is that as long as you are a low-risk pregnancy you can fly anytime up to 30 wks, 34wks with Dr permission. I flew regularly until 32wks (with Dr approval)
