Traveling when Pregnant

Congratulations on your pregnancy!

In most cases, you can safely fly without health risks for you and your baby up-to 36 weeks into your pregnancy (34 weeks if you are expecting more than 1 baby). We also recommend not to fly within the first week following delivery.

We advise you to always get medical clearance from your physician before you board the aircraft (this especially when you expect more than 1 baby, or if you have had complications during pregnancy in the past).

We also recommend letting our staff know that you’re pregnant, and what your expected due date is. This way, they can assist you better. You can always contact one of the Aviation Medical Specialist at Porto Medico.
