Travel during pregnancy is generally safe, and depending on the mode of transportation, many women receive the green light to travel pretty close to the end of pregnancy.
For women with uncomplicated pregnancies, the usual recommendation is to stop domestic air travel by 36 weeks, though your provider and airline may provide different restrictions. The cutoff is also likely to be earlier for international travel, which brings additional concerns about access to healthcare, potential diseases and illnesses and insurance coverage for travel emergencies.
Travel by car is generally less risky, but it’s important to talk to your provider about ways to prevent worsening of common pregnancy symptoms like back pain, nausea and leg cramps during periods of extended car travel.
